The art world has never quite known what to do with artists that make pipes for smoking weed. Nor have working-class artists gotten the respect they deserve. 

And what comes to mind when you think “Jewish artist?” At best, Marc Chagall. At worst … well, given the decrease of support for Jewish art in recent decades, nothing at all. So it’s about time to talk about Jeremy Grant-Levine, a Jewish glass artist who specializes in both bongs and biblical objects.

Read Isabella Segalovich's full profile on the artist.

Does anyone here know of some fashion and art historian TikTokers/video essayists that cover West African fashion and architectural history? With a focus on the pepper/gold coast area (Liberia is preferable, but I'm more interested in pre-colonial borders as we share several groups with surrounding countries)? I've been really interested in learning about the ties between art, fashion, and politics when it comes to ethnography (thank you, Isabella Segalovich), but as usual almost everything focuses on either Nigeria or Ghana (No hate to either just wishing for specific resources).

Ye has been spewing white supremacism for years. The world that I saw barely seemed to care when he struck up a very public friendship with Marylin Manson, who has been accused of horrific antisemitic abuse, sexual violence, and racism.

When he claimed in 2018 that 400 years of slavery was a choice, not one brand deal was dropped.

It is of course utterly unacceptable that this statement went unpunished — that he only faced consequences when he started attacking Jews. It is equally frustrating to see how little conversation there has been about how anti-Black racism and hatred toward Jews have long been part and parcel of the same belief system.

Treating Ye’s latest statements as exceptional, rather than a routine expression of the everyday reality of white supremacy, is only making the problem worse.
