On this day in 1759, 267 years ago, the radical abolitionist Benjamin Lay passed away at age 77. A hundred years before William Lloyd Garrison, Lay called for the immediate and complete abolition of slavery worldwide, with no payments to enslavers. Let us remember him. Art by Marco Lorenzetti.

Just a quick message to L.A., take a breather, enjoy the Superbowl cautiously, be ready for whatever Tom Homan is planning with CBPxICE integration.

I've seen them bottom out and win the Super Bowl a few years later twice in the last decade.

The troll yesterday doing the “art is classist and gatekeeping to the poor” bit worked on me, I’ve been irked for over a day now.

I grew up poor - art was something I could do, music/drawing/writing with whatever was laying around the house. Not only was it something to do, it helped me cope.

I thought this was the same Wasserman - he also owned (and killed off) the Arena Football League’s Los Angeles Avengers, who played in Staples Arena.

OFC he’s in the Epstein files too.

I'm Aaron, a fantasy illustrator working on non-Eurocentric stories including my own Pan-African fantasy world of #Ha-Nahn. I've done work for the Wagadu Chronicles, Into the Motherlands, @backwardsttrpg.bsky.social and more.

Find me at www.aaronradney.com and patreon.com/aaronradney
Mwindaji, Remnant Leader Image of Mwindaji, a named Remnant (a type of living weapon in Ha-Nahn that is formed when a weapon absorbs so much hatred and malice from its owner that it tries to keep on fighting even after that person dies) stalking forward through an eerie yellow orange night with a full moon. She wears a purple torn and tattered garment with great blades for her arms and a masked, eyeless face. She leads a small troop of others behind her as though prepared to destroy an unsuspecting village. Her body is full of indications of damage from previous battles and yet she still exists. Nature’s Aegis An image of a Black non-binary person in a rainforest environment. They are a mage and the painting is done primarily in a green pallet. They’re channeling nature magic into a protective cloak that trails away from her shoulders and arcs gracefully across the page. They look over their shoulder at it serenely and is seen from a slightly raised angle. Small calligraphic symbols can be seen throughout the image. Borderland Scout A dark skinned Black woman sitting atop an antelope of some sort outfitted with a saddle and riding harness. The creature is standing atop a rocky outcropping as the woman looks off into the distance. A vast sky surrounds her giving the piece a feeling of openness and majesty as birds circle high in the sky around her. Oaths to keep Two figures stand on a rise overlooking a dense forest at sunset. The world is rendered in luscious oranges, pinks, reds and gold. The two figures, silhouetted in the foreground look into the distance where a large temple complex rises out of the forest canopy. They clearly have a distance to go but the destination is in sight.

Today's random page is Landmark: Barnes Foundation www.philart.net/landmark/Bar... #Philly #PublicArt #VisitPhilly #art (pictured: Barnes Foundation Tabletop Fountain, Laurie Olin, 2012)
The fountain is flat, with no pulsing water, maybe 3 feet tall, 10 feet wide, and very long. The picture is taken from the West end, centered on the water spilling over onto the ground to be recirculated. The library across the street at the other end as well some sky and trees and a pole are reflected in the water and are visible at the top of the picture. Also visible are pavers around the fountain, some low flat benches, a person in a red jacket with a white bag over their shoulder walking away from the camera East on the Parkway, cars, and a couple of other pedestrians across the street at the far end.

The journalism industry news is heartbreaking today, as it often is. So it was nice to get this piece of good news for PA journalists in my inbox. Waxman is himself a former journalist.

Now to see if the Republican-majority PA Senate approves. I will not hold my breath.

As an aside, Rachel is a legend. (From Fischer’s “African Founders”)
Hudson Valley 177 RACHEL'S REVOLUTION: THE CUMULATIVE POWER OF INDIVIDUAL ACTS As the long War of American Independence approached its end in Dutchess County, New York, a slave named Rachel resolved to free herself from bond-age. In 1781, she ran away from her master. He accused her of stealing his property by taking the clothing on her back. Rachel was outraged by the charge of theft. They were her clothes. Probably she had made them. A week later she came back, set fire to her master's house, and escaped to British lines in New York City. Then she disapeared and probably took a new identity. Rachel was not alone. Many slaves acted independently to free them…

Happy Groundhog Day! I am a fan of the absurdity of weather prognosticating rodents and celebrate Groundhog Day with my thermochromic linocut. The shadow is visible if the ambient temperature is <30°C and disappears when >30°C (and it’s a safe bet winter is over or you are overheating your home). 🧵
Two side by side images of my standing groundhog with shadow thermochromic print on 12” x 12” white washi paper. The groundhog stands on its hind legs. It’s brown with black paws. On the left the shadows is colourless but on the right it is blue, because the print on the left has been heated above 30°C

That is the shortest pre-order window I have ever run so if you want one of these guaranteed in your size, order ASAP!
