Thoughtful opinion piece by Karen Attiah in WSJ, about Boston's new Martin Luther King Jr and Coretta Scott King sculpture "The Embrace"

It confirms my own reaction to the sculpture (from my perspective as an artist & ally) which was: couldn't our city support the creation of a great statue of the whole man, and the whole woman, instead of reduce them to floating arms and hands connected by weird shapes?

Repost from @benbrownfinearts

‘The Embrace' by Hank Willis Thomas 2023 ⁠

This monumental bronze sculpture was inspired by a photograph of Martin Luther King, Jr. hugging his wife Coretta following the announcement that he had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.⁠

So waaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiitttttttttt, a Black sculptor creates a giant interactive statue that honors not just , but also and *also* intends it to honor a message and other local leaders and it gets panned by *checks notes* a conservative columnist from the local conservative paper, the conservative wing of the King family and Bird App people? Ok.

My take? I love and its symbolism.
