Raising Funds for @Outlast Film Camp

This piece "LADY LIBERTY 2021" is being sold as a sticker to raise money for Native (Indigenous) and Blk Students to create authentic films this summer.

It would mean so much, if you would help by purchasing 1 or a few, so they can have the opportunity to explore, create and connect. [ CLICK HERE to support ]

I, Brittany Symone, am dedicated to finding unique ways to help the community build, grow and allow positive change to take place.

It was such an honor to create this piece, and I am extremely proud that I can help from afar. I know times are different, and rocky for others, but together, we CAN and WILL make it happen.

Blessings to all of you.

I have always tiptoed around faith.

It wasn’t until everything was taken away (so to speak) : a relationship, a Harlem apartment, a shut down in society, a hard stop with cash flow - that I fully surrendered and took care of me // deepened my faith, to find that I have been taken care of completely throughout my entire life.

It wasn’t until the world stopped, that my faith allowed me the courage to do something bigger than myself.  Being still and slowing down, I am in tune with my childhood goals and aspirations.  I can finally put the pieces together and see the steps to get there.  I am extremely happy and self-motivated.  I now know what it means to HUSTLE to do what you’ve been called to do.

At first I didn’t want to uproot and leave - but honestly it’s been the one action in 2020 that’s allowed me to see clearly.

I am truly blessed to be here today with clarity that has given me the KEY to succeed.

as I paint,

reflecting on lyrics that allow SPIRIT to flow freely.

I am moved by classic - timeless - truth filled music.

after taking time

to redirect my life

and redefine my path

getting BACK IN-TUNE with my purpose,

I am thankful to have noticed that like many, I am using my platform to inform, unite, and affirm.

thank you GOD.

ma rainey’s black bottom (2020) script. 
watched this movie twice and fell deep in thought. 
when he stated — “…all of us together.” “what is all of us gonna do?”
—
DEEP, right!
—
how do we get different minds to move “together”
how do we break old ways of thinking?
this led me to wonder, am i doing enough for the Blk and Brown community? what can i do to unite us and work together as a whole? what will i do to secure our minds to make real change.

i took my rage and designed apparel to empower others through dark times.

profits raised, outside of production and shipping cost, were donated entirely to the Family of Breonna Taylor.
