Amigas, as I find myself aging and growing older, I cannot complain. I am in relatively good health and aside from the normal aches and pains of age, my life is good. But as I reflect on what is happening in this country and as I watch the rights of so many people being chipped away every single day, I have to ask myself, HOW IN THE HELL DID WE ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN? This regression. This return to a time when women did not have rights and when anyone who was not of one color and one belief would have to hide in the closet or be persecuted and murdered.
I lived to see the Civil Rights Movement. I saw Dolores Huerta march with the Farmworkers Union. I watched and cheered as Billie Jean King kicked that short dude's butt in a tennis match that some called the "battle of the sexes," but what we all know was the Women's Liberation Movement!

Is it healthy for us to rage every single day? To watch as hard-working, good people are kidnapped and disappeared from our very streets not unlike the days preceding WWII Germany? I fear for so many of my friends who have had to go into hiding and whose lives have been interrupted by a Regime that craves power so badly that they are unwilling to share the government of this land with those of us who have earned the right to be here.

YES. It is HEALTHY to RAGE every single day. And to take breaks when you need them so that you can come back fighting. I have never been an advocate for guns or weapons because you know, I don't live in fear. But I carry a machete in my head and when I see him/them speak, my machete swings down on him/them with all of the power and strength that the spirit of Lady Justice and Lady Liberty can give me. Because what they are doing is NOT democracy. What they are doing is NOT who we are. What they are doing is not only ILLEGAL, but it is IMMORAL and INHUMAN and CRUEL.

And this, this Divine Feminine Rage, is something they can never take away. I will continue to be a thorn in their sides until they are gone and only WE are left standing to start all over again and do it better.

This painting is created using metallic acrylic paints on 11x14 canvas board. The total framed size is: 17x20. She is framed in a "found" frame that is an actual slice of wood with a natural bark trim. The frame is hand painted too. This frame must be treated with care because the bark trim is somewhat fragile. I have sealed the frame with an acrylic sealant to help stabilize it and it should hold well, but any falls or bumps could cause damage. So please, be careful with this one.

Signed on the back and ready to display, Amigas.

Due to the fragile state of the frame, I cannot offer international shipping on this piece, Amigas. Sorry for any inconvenience.
