A haunting image of the artist #DavidHammons draped in the American flag, his hands joined in prayer, “Pray for America” was created just a year after the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy and during a time of nationwide protests, race riots, and demonstrations against the Vietnam War. The “body print”—made by pressing his skin and clothing, smeared with grease or margarine, against a sheet of paper—speaks broadly to what Hammons described as his “moral obligation as a black artist to try to graphically document what I feel socially.” At this time of intolerable tragedy and violence, we must all unite in rejecting racism and injustice and commit to building a future of safety, peace, and equity for all.
