Violent killings of unarmed black men and women by police must cease. This is an artist's attempt to extinguish a fire with creativity. He has drawn leaders and thinkers and great revolutionary minds marching, holding onto what makes them truly remarkable. Dr. King is holding onto his faith. Assata Shakur is holding onto her freedom. Dred Scott is holding onto his freedom papers. Frederick Douglass is holding onto the thirteenth amendment. Madame C.J. Walker is holding onto her scissors. Ida B. Wells is holding onto a newspaper that says, "Injustice for All" and they're marching in front of victims of hate crimes and police brutality. Trayvon Martin is holding onto a pack of Skittles and a can of Arizona Tea. Mike Brown is holding onto his diploma. Eric Garner is holding onto a pack of cigarettes. Sean Bell is holding onto the wedding ring he never got to give to his wife. This book is a marriage of education and awareness that we are living in a time of chaos and corruption when injustice happens everyday. This comprehensive and complex coloring book is the creative narrative of a movement which is simply stating that all lives will not matter until the most vulnerable and attacked population throughout history is seen and treated as equal- We are all remarkable.
