I just started making illustrations at the end of 2019, actually. When I published my first illustration a few months later, it kind of lit a spark inside me that said "maybe this can be more than just a hobby." You see, I'm actually a writer by profession and "iggdeh" is my artist pseudonym. I've always been attracted to editorial & political art and I always wanted to get into it, but there was never enough time, or so I thought.

I'm also a progressive and an activist at heart. It's hard not to feel hurt when people are victimized or when reading about this or that type of injustice at home in the US or elsewhere in the world. There has been too much ugliness for a long time, especially in the last 4 years. So I'm trying to blend these two identities together in the type of illustrations and messages I create. If possible, I'd like to carve out a progressive space in the editorial world and help paint the voice of like-minded journalists, organizations, and news media. I'm not there yet, far from it, but hopefully, soon I can be.

Help From The Rich?

Taxing the rich is the best way to give back to communities and help end the problems in the world, like poverty, healthcare, inequality, education, climate change, hunger, etc.

Don’t condemn what is happening, condemn why it’s happening. Everyone has a limit to the injustice they can tolerate. Real people are hurting and expressing their pain.

@YoChicken you act like people look down on you but thats not the case. I dont look at someone of a different race and think that I'm better than them nor do I know anyone that does. if yall want to show whites that you can be better then how about you do it? because i dont think anyone can be better at anything solely because of their race but for people who do think that you need to change their mind and show it. slavery was something completely out of our control but yall continue to blame us. if you are oppressed because your ancestors were slaves, im sorry. But then I would be oppressed as a white male in the south because we are the most looked down on people here. Notice how there are no white only colleges because thats racist but there are black only because we are equal. female only colleges but only 3 male only colleges because those are sexist and one of those is for black males. whenever a white male in the south voices their opinion it gets dismissed.

Because for, oh, I don’t know, 250 years, every white male in the South sounded a whole lot like Jefferson Davis.

Why are black people better than everyone all of a sudden even the stats show otherwise?
