Art Is The Weapon®, which began as a podcast about artists who create weaponized art--That is, art that advocates, motivates, educates, and inspires; art that expands Black consciousness and extends Black culture, is now an eBook published by artGriot Publishing and available soon! The eBook format allows us to offer images, as well as new and interactive content in a more fluid and engaging format.Art Is The Weapon discusses African American visual artists, our work, and the permanence and relevance our art should have in major museums and galleries across America and the world! Beyond museums and galleries, where can Black art that provides social commentary, advocates, or ignites activism be discussed? Other than the comedian, actor, filmmaker, or other celebrity who often speaks on behalf of Black society, Art Is The Weapon offers our point of view as visual artists. artGriot is now extending the visual discourse to the ebook format and continues the discussion about what we create and how it uplifts Black consciousness and expands Black culture.
