"Maya Angelou Rise Above" is a mural I completed in May 2019 at Dr. Maya Angelou Community High School in Los Angeles. I was excited to paint this for several reasons. First, I think the power and value of art should be emphasized wherever possible, but especially at a high school where young people are developing their world views and are still idealistically searching for the right paths forward. Second, I have been a fan of Maya Angelou's writing since I read "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" in my 20's. I think she is an excellent example of using creativity to overcome adversity and express yourself on your own terms. Maya Angelou is a role model as a thinker, creator, and social-justice warrior. She has an incredible number of great quotes, but I chose: "Hate has created a lot of problems in the world, but has not solved one yet." I used this in 2019, and it's still relevant because we are living in a moment politically when many people seem to be choosing hate over compassion. Stay strong and keep fighting for justice. -Shepard⁠
