Supporting the Black creative community is vital right now and always. Art can inspire, heal, and unite, and with the protests against police brutality and systematic racism happening right now, supporting Black artists by following and highlighting them as well as buying their work is a small, tangible way to show your commitment to stand with the community in crisis. Creatives are using their social platforms to shed light on issues of racism with stunning, powerful art. We're highlighting Black artists you should follow on Instagram as well as their work that is bringing light to the social injustices of our times. Keep reading to follow and support Black artists who are creating beautiful works that spark change.
