I'm Afraid of Americans

0.0 x 0.0

72 x 72". Mixed Media. 2020. I often hear from politicians that I’ll be a law and order - fill in the blank. Our country has an obsession with penal codes and we’re all familiar with 187. The majority of these codes are unique to individual states, so there are literally millions to sort through. We all come in contact with them every day. Daily news stories just select the worst of these codes to to broadcast on a daily basis. Many of us would agree at just how good America is at violence. See Native Americans, Slavery, Mexico, etc. Our corporations are just as culpable and participate in the sale of automatic weapons. Regardless of the number of mass shootings that take place. There are a lot of reasons to be afraid of Americans.
