Description
In its second year the Artivism Student Project, an initiative that focuses on the power of youth voice and art as a tool for social inquiry, the students will focus on Black People on the rise. The project was birthed out of the Mayor's Office of Resilience & Racial Equity in partnership with the Mayor's Office of Arts & Culture, The Mayor’s Office of Economic Opportunity and Inclusion and artist collective, The Artist Initiative for Revolution in 2022. The students will use their chosen medium to describe and tell their stories to the community about racial equity, social justice and resilience.

Art
dance
well,
art
is
Art
right,
dance,
visual
arts.
You
could
tell
it's
been
a
long
week
with
your
kids.
Can
you
talk?
Okay,
dance,
poetry,
Visual,
Arts
and
Music.
B
And
so
the
essence
of
this
program,
which
is
a
collaboration
between
the
office
and
air,
is
really
all
about
centering
the
artist's
voice
and
unpacking
stories
as
a
way
for
them
to
really
guide
and
influence
the
art
that
they're
creating.

And
you
also
don't
have
to
use
your
voice.
You
know,
music
is
great.
Poetry
is
great,
Visual
Arts
is
great,
but
for
those
who
just
cannot
speak
like
right
now,
I'm
literally
about
to
cry
right,
but
for
those
who
cannot
speak,
you
move
and
they're
going
to
Showcase
what
they've
been
working
on
I
give
them
time
to
choreograph.
So
this
is
like
their
stuff
for
real
I'm.
Just
you
know
making
sure
it
looks
good
yeah.

You
are
enough,
you
are
capable,
you
are
loved.
I
know
the
world
lacks
kindness
and
life
keeps
back
in
your
pretty
face,
but
I
need
you
to
open
your
eyes,
those
Majestic
lenses,
no
matter
what
color
they
are
I
need
you
to
see
the
Masterpiece
standing
in
front
of
the
glass
shape
precious
Spirit
Radiance
of
life
baby.
You
shine,
I
invite
you
to
heal
every
negative
word
address
to
your
beautiful
self.
