“Harriets’ Inconvenient Truths (H.I.T.)” originated from a series of Cultural Humility workshops led by Kamora Herrington (Kamora’s Cultural Corner) in collaboration with The Harriet Beecher Stowe Center, Hartford, CT. The Stowe Center chose to enhance their educational experience by incorporating a Black Art Heals Healing Artist to interpret the sessions. Healing Artist David Jackson was the artist who interpreted the sessions and created "H.I.T" In totality, the piece showcases a duality often found in American culture. Elements surrounding Stowe’s popular literary piece, Uncle Tom’s Cabin and its impact are found scattered throughout the painting. It is a comprehensive surrealist composition transparently spotlighting the anatomy of two Harriets which were a common theme throughout discussions.

This was my first day as Kamora's Cultural Corner at Kabbalah House. Dreaming and imagining and manifesting.

The day after George Floyd was murdered in Minneapolis and Amy Cooper accused Christian Cooper of threatening her in Central Park I discussed the importance of NOT agreeing to disagree.

During our Black Art Heals Tour in 2020 we were in Richmond VA when the police came in and destroyed the Robert E. Lee protest encampment.
