Echo of Oppression
By: Samantha Trimboli
Taking quotes from the overwhelming media, this piece is a visual representation of the undeniable oppression being brought to light in the United States. Words of anger, disappointment, and painful empathy surround a black woman who is just trying to protect herself in the face of America. This piece is not only a symbol but an exhortation to listen to and understand the emotions and experiences of the Black community. ■
