BLACK LIVES MATTER
ECHO OF OPRESSION
T
aking quotes from the overwhelming media, this piece is a visual representattion of the undeniable oppression being brought to light in the United States. Words of anger, disappointment, and painful empathy surround a black woman who is just trying to protect herself in the face of America. This piece is not only a symbol but an exhortation to listen to and understand the emotions and experiences of the Black community. ■SAMANTHA TRIMBOLI is an undergraduate student from Staten Island, New York, USA, currently studying at Yale University (‘23).
