When you see graffiti, how does it make you feel?

I like to get up close and personal.

If we are willing to consider that prehistoric animal paintings are storytelling, we can apply this logic to non-commissioned murals too.

The brilliant part of storytelling is that it fuses every aspect of our lives, work, and communities; thus, there is always time for one more.

When we share the timeless story of empathy, we humanize one another with the dignity and respect that comes with being seen, heard, and understood.

Until we meet again, see yourself in one another. ❤️

Yours in Solidarity, -akm
