This also happened on smaller occasions, like with banks.


Black Artists

A lot of black artists were recognized after they had died or stopped working on art as their main occupation. But it isn't because they were misunderstood, but because they usually weren't given the chance, or were discriminated against, like not being able to join or do certain things.

This film was also very eye opening, as I realized I had'nt heard of many of these artists. I would like to look into more POC artists, as well as women and LGBTQ+. I feel that many of the artists that are known today are all white men. https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208064100 2021-02-16 18:02:06 UTC https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208064100 https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208067892 Why were black people facing discrimination when they were making inventions to make everyday life easier?
I learned that names are how the world perceives us.

It was honest, and shed light on the industry, as well as the struggles of being a black woman at that time. Also, it was interesting to hear about mental health issues, as they were not talked about as much at that time. emmapardo241_1 https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208096012 2021-02-16 18:09:10 UTC https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208096012 I learned about multiple well accomplished Black artists and how many of them have been so inspirational but we havent heard anything about them. https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208096520 2021-02-16 18:09:18 UTC https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208096520 Zoe https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208116282 I thought it was very interesting to learn about Dorothy Dandridge's fully story; her highest points of success, her lowest points and her biggest challenges.

I think that it is important to look closely at these accomplished artists because at least for me, I tend to forget that art is both something for viewers but is also a job for someone else and I think remembering that is important because not only were they trying to pursue a dream but they devoted their lives to this and with that came a lot of challenges that were unfair and solely based off of something they could not control.]]> 2021-02-16 18:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208139425 Callum https://padlet.com/leevelynh1_1/qh8aahoz625xc2bs/wish/1208139897 I learned that there are so many black artists that have their own unique styles of art.
