The Cost of a Dollar Print

The inspiration of this art is the black liberation movement sweeping across the globe. Right now more than ever it is important to talk about the unethical production that occurs under our current system of capitalism. It is important to talk about the direct effects the system of capitalism plays in the oppression, and degradations of black people in America especially. Throughout the painting you can see many sights and depictions of the horrific effects of capitalism. You see people dying, fighting, and procreating all under the detrimental system of capitalism. Slavery guised as freedom and independence.
