1) Yasuke ``lX`` represents the ninja like stealth we as a people have to use when defending ourselves physically and physiologically in a society that dooms us if we do or don't take action to save ourselves.

2) Black Rattler Party is a special piece to me because I lost my little brother, who was a Rattler, to gun violence back in 2016, Since then I have been consumed with Black history and Black Power which led me to meet and converse with Bobby Seale.

3) When Her Head is in the Clouds is a piece that represents strength of the black woman, noting that when a young black girl, such as my daughter, has her head in the clouds she is probably imagining the woman she will become one day, reflecting hope for a better tomorrow.
