Maya Moon Bauer is in that book as a small child with her family. Her parents were artists and she grew up to design her own heirloom handbags
A brilliant woman. So very bold and wise. ♥️
Thirsty much
Hawaiian don't have tradition tattoos...get it straight
Rachel McCrafty was such a brilliant Artist, and her art was always about giving back, connecting people and making their lives better. She will be missed for a long, long time. <3
One of my mother's favorite books. As children, my sisters and I did our best to copy some of the designs, the outcomes were hilarious.
I always wanted to be a panther
what beautiful art and amazing legacy this man has left behind for many generations like myself to enjoy, Thank you Marvin, and thank you OMC for this awesome content.

I miss seeing the Black Panthers. I'm sick of the uneducated racist, fascists far right who will support a lunatic because of who's telling everyone what he's planning to do with anyone who he's got a problem with. I will pack my bags and move out of this country if the people who are responsible

Interesting... I just noticed OMCA had these on their page and there is no reference to Aide Rodríguez, nor myself, Isaías Rodríguez, the two people responsible for shooting, producing, editing, and capturing this entire series. Hope that can change. Sorry it took all these years to follow up, I've been a little busy making art and traveling. Please, update this description to credit the correct people who were responsible for making this all happen. Thank you.

Casey is an incredible artist!!
That is courage
To one of my Heroes ❤❤
Lovely man. I enjoyed learning about him.
OMG! Just saw this video at Oaklands Museum of California! The entire exhibit is informative, and let’s you get a better/in-depth sense of how events played out. I was in elementary school at the time of her erroneously being charged with three capitol crimes! I had no idea, of the global support she garnered. The video is thorough, in that it shows her being completely her intellectual, compassionate, progressive self. She’s truly an inspiration for others who are trying to change the world’s systems, and making every space, a better place for each, and every one of us! ✊🏾
it wont be to owe , nor shall it seems , that upon , MONT SAINT MICHEL , MED VILLAGE , there approach was home , !

I was just talking about the trees with my coworkers today. Steve was my boyfriend back in high school, totally adored him, and still do. He looks and sounds exactly the same😁. His wife (Marie Antoinette) is just as much of a scholar/botanist/scientist, and they both have discovered so much about these old true to life Treebeards over the past 30 years. Trees have feelings, they communicate, and there’s a reason many of us feel a connection between trees as well as the plants in our garden. Steve has always been a hard working and good person, and I’m so happy that he not only became the rock star he was meant to be, but also found his fellow rock star partner with Marie. ❤️
Chapito lomas chavo feliz HAPPY Jose García 2013
Incredible

A movement by the Panthers for the people One major time in America when Black people stood up to the bulls.... And made the changes , in the community That were needed. ALL POWER TO THE PEOPLE !! THE 10 POINT. PROGRAMS ARE AS RELEVANT IN 2023 AS IN 1966 CHECK IT OUT FOR YOURSELF. ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
Salute
RIP and blessings to you and your followers, dear Leonard. I find irony in your mountain, contrasting Hal David's song in a beautifully simple message: What the world needs now, is love, sweet love... It's the only thing that there's just too little of. Lord, we don’t need another mountain, There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb.
Kind of ugly.
Thank you for sharing this. Can someone please post the transcript?
genius.
Communism is a cancer.
Stealing children musical instruments lol That's how Oakland does one another. Why mother .
Looking to our past as a way to celebrate our victories... Truly inspiring. And "Art teaches us to be free." Couldn't agree more!
Insane vision
Maravilhosa entrevista. Viva Angela Davis, Viva Lelia Gonzalez, Viva Marielle Franco...
A pleasure Goddess to feel your Soulful Essence❤🖤💚🤩
Blessing too our people !! THANK YOU Madam Rev
I’m one proud man to have been raised with parents that were involved in this movement in Oakland, California. This fine articulate woman is as relevant now on so many levels than she ever was. If you get the opportunity to view the exhibition at the Oakland Museum, dont pass it up…. She makes me proud to spell my name HUMAN…
I would love to see more pictures in the canopies with all the trees and epiphytes growing as well as the creatures who live up there. Thank you Steve for your bravery and passion for these trees.
Powerful and inspiring
She is one of my greatest heroes. What an honor that we get to hear her words of wisdom and stories of the past.
