Located on Union Street in Boston's North End, the Green Dragon Tavern was a hotbed of activity in pre-revolutionary Boston. In 1764, the tavern was sold to the St. Andrew's Lodge of Freemasons. The tavern's "Long Room" was used by several clubs and caucuses for private and public meetings. Consider what was planned in that room...Historians have come to refer to the famed spot as the "Headquarters of the Revolution."

Our Nation Is better than this!!!

War mongering, fuck you.

George Washington

Andrzej Tadeusz Bonawentura Kościuszko (or Andrew Thaddeus Bonaventure Kosciuszko) (1746-1817) was Polish freelance soldier and military engineer who fought in the American Revolutionary War (among others) for the cause of American freedom.

"No one really knows how the game is played. The art of the trade, how the sausage gets made. We just assume that it happens. But no one else is in the room where it happens."

My Revolutionary War take on this meme. King George III and Lord North v George Washington and his salmagundi.

In American History, Thomas Jefferson was a founding father of the United States. Serving as the third president of the United States, he supported democracy, republicanism and individual rights. Are you a libertarian & US patriot? This is for you.

Founding Fathers = Squad Goals

Revolutionary War Founding Fathers Joseph Warren and Paul Revere were friends, contemporaries, masonic brothers, confidants, confederates, and compatriots. The pair both lost their wives in the same week. This shared grief, along with brotherhood and shared ideas about the rights of the colonists, bonded the two. Undoubtedly, Warren's death at Bunker Hill deeply affected the famed silversmith. It's no wonder Paul Revere named his son Joseph Warren Revere.

The Forgotten Midnight Rider

I made this work, titled 'The Rot Beneath the Gown,' as a representation of the costs involved in consumerism, fashion and consumption - the human costs, slave labour, historical exploitation, imperialism and death that persists to this day to feed the colonial need for hoarding resources, beauty and clothing to express class.

Made this collage because I loved the way the original subjects are posing and looking at the viewer from above. Filled it out with images that interested me from individual pages in magazines. Dream until its your reality - for me, that's making a living off my art and financial independence.

An early work but no less beloved, about what it feels like trying to carve out equal rights while others work hard to claw each gain back and tell us it's too soon, just wait, do it peacefully, don't make a fuss, play in respectability politics. All bullshit, set to Nina Simone's classic protest song, Mississippi Goddamn.

A portrait of a man, a love letter.

Watermelons were originally a symbol of black emancipation pre Jim Crow era and were then co-opted by racists to become a racist trope about their supposed uncleanliness, childishness, idleness and unfitness for the public square. It was spread in US print throughout the late 1860s and supported the post-emancipation argument that African Americans were unsuited for citizenship. Well, FUCK that.

Chibi Sam Adams with Signature

A visualization of who actually built the house and the hidden unpaid labour that built our country. There would be no capitalist economy without the labor of enslaved people on cotton plantations, funnelling money North and abroad. There would be no capitalist economy without the enslaved labor or indentured labor on tea plantations, cotton plantations, sugar cane fields.

Chibi Thomas Jefferson 2

A never ending, always relevant protest reel.

Once lost is lost forever.

Paul Revere was a silversmith in colonial Boston. He's famous for his midnight ride to warn colonists about the British troops who were poised to attack. “Noise!” cried Revere, “You’ll have noise enough before long. The regulars are coming out!” According to tradition, John Hancock, who was still awake, heard Revere’s voice and said “Come in, Revere! We’re not afraid of you”. He entered the house and delivered his message.

The question everyone know the answer to but never wants to say out loud.

Giggle and snort and cackle and howl and chuckle and huff and puff and grin and blow the house down.
