Have Fun - Do Good

JANUARY 16, 2009

I think about how hesitant I was to become an artist, because I didn't see role models, and even to this day how hard it is for me sometimes to find peers who are women of color, because of how systematically they are pushed out. I'm an artist and an institution builder. The kind of art I do is art that gets engaged into the public.

Lack of support and mentorship A bit like building a social network, individuals from underserved communities may lack access to supportive mentors who can help guide them and provide advice on how to succeed in their chosen fields. Mentorship is in many ways a mindset, and one which those from BIPOC communities are not regularly exposed to.

Kind of like artists, a lot of passion and drive can create great things, but they aren't necessarily sustainable over time. They're artists so they think big. We do it both through personal mentoring, but also with the right skill sets. What does big really mean for us? How do you build strong entrepreneurs?

Does anyone in the room identify as an artist, by any chance? I just want to dispel the myth that we are not activists and that we are not artists.
