Created using plastic New York Post newspaper sleeves woven onto a gold spray-painted, reclaimed shopping cart, transforming BAD NEWS into a symbol of Joyful Resistance.

Joyful resistance seeks to reclaim spaces and narratives that have been dominated by oppressive forces, flipping the script by finding beauty, connection, and empowerment in the act of standing up for justice. It is about holding space for hope and vision, even in the face of adversity, creating a more vibrant and inclusive world through the act of celebration and creative expression.

Joy is a form of resistance.

We all carry emotional baggage Naturally; these manifests differently for each of us. Some of us push shopping carts of pain and bitterness while some of us just have a backpack.
I carry a lifetime of racial trauma.

Being alive means having the capacity to carry past experiences and learn from them. But there’s a point when this baggage becomes too much. Carrying too much emotional baggage can literally stop us from being open to new experiences, intimacy and growth.

How we choose to handle our baggage makes a difference. We have the choice to let it define us or to let it go and move forward.
