Brandon BMike Odums and Russell Craig, celebrated visual artists from New Orleans and #Philadelphia, come together at #Philly's Know Your Rights Camp to share powerful stories of resilience and the life-changing impact of art. For them, #art isn't just a medium; it's a lifeline—a way for young people to channel their struggles, frustrations, and dreams. Russell, reflecting on his own journey from a tumultuous past marked by incarceration to the canvas of success, speaks to the relentless power of imagination and the will to overcome. Through their words, they urge young people to see art as a tool for rewriting their narratives and finding hope in the face of adversity. Their session became a profoundly emotional call to harness creativity as a force for self-discovery, change, and boundless possibility.
