edit data

Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle (Olomidara Yaya) is a multidisciplinary visual artist, writer, performer, and healer. Her practice fluctuates between collaborations and participatory projects with alternative gallery spaces within various communities to projects that are intimate and based upon her private experiences in relationship to historical events and contexts. Her practice serves as a bridge, merging the intersections of art, activism, spirituality, and healing as tools for retrieval. Her healing practice consists of being a catalyst for retrieval through the usage of reiki, sound healing, divination, channeling, and mediumship. A term that has become a mantra for her practice is the "Historical Present," as she examines the residue of history Kenyatta A.C.

Dispatch from the Desk: Working on the 2nd Book of a new trilogy

SIR is now three years old and I have begun working on a three part SIR Trilogy concerning names that "undefined the defined." It took me 10 years to write SIR in which I became a mother myself and witnessed so much state-sanctioned police brutality against Black bodies.

Kenyatta Hinkle and 35 other people liked Sarah's review of Queen Sugar: "You know what's strange for me about this book? It's very descriptive and meandering and yet I felt like the ending was rushed. I liked the story and characters - it was interesting to read about life in the South and what it would be like returning " Read more of this review »

Kenyatta’s Quotes

“Choose your leaders
with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward
is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool
is to be led
by the opportunists
who control the fool.
To be led by a thief
is to offer up
your most precious treasures
to be stolen.
To be led by a liar
is to ask
to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant
is to sell yourself
and those you love
into slavery.”
― Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents

tags: cowards, fools, leaders, leadership, liars, thieves, tyrants
