Eric J. Garcia made this graphic about the uprising in Minneapolis where he lives.
Eric referenced “A Class Rebellion: Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor on How Racism & Racial Terrorism Fueled Nationwide Anger” a segment from Democracy Now when making it. In the segment Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor says, “These [uprisings] are the consequences of the failures of this government and the political establishment, the economic establishment of this country to resolve those crises, and so they build and accumulate over time. And we are watching the boiling over of that.”
Eric J. Garcia blends history, contemporary themes and a graphic style to create politically charged art that reaches beyond aesthetics. To see more of his work and follow him visit his website: www.ericjgarcia.com
