Throughout history many activist who carry the message of unity or equality would usually find themselves becoming the subject of a series of vigorous silencing campaigns. Activist such as Martin Luther King, who dedicated his entire life to pushing forth equality amongst all people would still found himself to be the subject of pure hate. Never in a million years would I think that one of my callings would be to become one of these very activist and become one of those who speak for or speak up for those without a voice. Equality among all has always been a cause and a message that I have been very passionate about but these past few months I finally decided that simply putting encrypted messages within some of my Fashion work was just not enough. I wanted to actually become part of the change and part of the very needed conversation that is critical during these trying times. God was showing me that it was time to not only showcase my passion for fashion/art, but it was also time for me to simultaneously pursue my true genuine passion for people. When I say people. I mean everyday people, regardless of where they were raised, where they came from, what race they were, their gender, their circumstances, their personal orientations or in my mother's case; their disabilities. All people should be treated as human beings. 

On Mother's Day, the day that we are supposed to honor the women that God has chosen to bring us into this world, I witness a form of discrimination that you usually hear occurring within corrupt foreign countries not America. Speaking up for my mother means that I can find ways to speak up for others like her who continuously find their selves the victim of discrimination, even by the ones they are supposed to trust the very most.
