La foto es de la artista junto a su obra de 2006 titulada “Head First.” («De cabeza»). Emma Amos, Afro-Americana, fue pintora, escritora y activista feminista. Reconoció desde que inició su carrera profesional, que el arte estaba dominado por hombres, bien sean blancos o negros y por eso supo que para ella era inevitable ser activista. El arte y el activismo tenían que estar inseparablemente unidos. Por esto y por la belleza y alta calidad de su obra, hay que conocer a esta gran mujer artista.

The above photograph is of the artist and her 2006 work titled «Head First». Emma Amos, African-American painter, was also a writer and a feminist activist. She realised quite early in her career that art was male dominated, whether they be White or Black, so she knew that for her being an activist was inevitable. Art and activism had to be inseparably united. Because of this and also for the beauty and high quality of her work, this woman artist must be known to all.
