Poster triptych (or single poster now) for hank's class based on the flannery o'connor concept that "everything that rises must converge."
Posters based on african-americans turning a pejorative used against them into a word of power, when the actual truth is that there is no power in changing the word because it is still an identity trapped in the original reference to the race. If we are to find our own identity, we must let go of that word altogether.
DuBois idea: "Double consciousness, a consciousness that yields him no TRUE self-consciousness, but only lets him see himself through the revelation of the other world. It is a peculiar sensation this double consciousness, this sense of always looking at one's self through the eyes of others, of measuring one's soul by the tape of the world that looks on i amused contempt and pity"
