This next comic I'm working on is about the history of my union, Common Ground Workers United, and how we took over our shop in just 2 months after all being fired. To be released this summer!

I'm taking 'The Artist Must Take Sides' course presented by @againstapartheid.art & @peoplesforumnyc and you should too! 🫵
In this course, we'll be studying the history of revolutionary artists and art that has taken a side - the struggle for liberation.

"this new will of a whole continent, of Latin America, is made manifest in the cry proclaimed daily by our masses as the irrefutable expression of their decision to fight and to paralyze the armed hand of the invader. It is a cry that has the understanding and support of all the peoples of the world"
- Che Guevara

While I've been working on the Cuba comic, I've also been finishing up another comic about my union that I plan to have published and distributed for free this summer.

Right now, hundreds of international solidarity activists are in Cuba delivering aid to break the brutal US blockade. The blockade has been strangling Cuba for over half a century, and the purpose has always been regime change to re-establish US control just as Trump is trying to do today.
Above are some panels from a comic in progress that I plan to publish this summer.

100% of sales of my 'Let Cuba Live' poster will support @hatueyproject in delivering critical medications and supplies to Cuba.
Buy a print at @commongroundworkers this weekend! I'll be restocking more soon.
Three more panels from the new comic in progress depicting some of the early achievements of the Cuban revolution which included many improvements to people's daily lives. One of the most significant was the ending of illiteracy in just one year.
New comic about Cuba is still steady in the works but already half way done. Here is one panel depicting Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, leaders of the Revolution.
Join me for the ICE Out of Baltimore art show opening reception next Friday the 13th, 5pm at Waller Gallery. There's gonna be so much amazing work in this show. And it's a great way to be in community to build our power and do some important fundraising.
