A curation by Kelly Krugman, Curator at SAVVY Contemporary - in the wrist of a magnolia tree, hung or lynched /
in a rose-throated croon of liberty and justice for all /
except blues people living in the smoke /
at a crossroads, what really happened that day /
robert johnson brought his guitar/
to meet an evil of all hues /
play with magic /
and be ready for it /
to play with you /
some folks fear death /
others know better...
what endures the body is the body /
when we left our mother's belly /
we did not take any land /
only thing we took was the weapon of her smile /
and the elixir of her love.
— an excerpt of "we are" by Aja Monet, African American poet and activist, inspired by Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish
