Own Words: Being Black in America

Tucson artist Seanloui shares his experiences and what he sees as the solution to current demonstrations.
by Kassandra Lau

In a return to our occasional series Own Words, our commentary this week comes from Tucson artist Seanloui, who answered a question we posed about what it’s like to be Black in America. The California native moved to the city nearly a decade ago and has since made his mark as founder of the Black Renaissance, a collective of Black artists in Arizona who showcase their work throughout the year.
