Emerging from the tear gas and smoke of the recent protests with the sun behind her, “Liberty Leads Her People” is meant to be an uplifting tribute to the strength of the modern day Black Femme led protests throughout the country. She is flanked by an owl, looking back towards the past and symbolizing the spirits of the ancestors, the mothers and grandmothers whose wisdom and sacrifice brought us to this point in history. On her other side, facing the forwards towards the future, is a sparrow, representing youth and spring. She is both a nod to the hymnal “His Eye is on the Sparrow”, which speaks to freedom, and a symbol of the youth who are the inheritors of the future. The lines behind the work show that all three generations, past, present, and future, are all connected throughout time. Completing the circle of time, are floral elements which are a reference to Alice Walker’s Piece “In Search Of Our Mother’s Garden”, which talks about the muted creative potential of Black generations past. The flowers have been chosen for their symbolic meaning. Purple and White Iris’ for wisdom, the green rose, which was used as a symbol of the underground railroad, and the bird of paradise, selected because it originates in South Africa, and was brought to America through colonization.

The painting is loosely based on the Eugene Delacroix painting “Liberty Leads The People”, which was painted during the French revolution, and spoke to the people toppling a cruel and out of touch leadership, and shows a woman leading the charge. Auz and Nico have taken this image and modernized it to the more inclusive figure leading the charge over Richmond, megaphone in hand, and demanding equity, and a brighter future for the next generation.

During the process of designing and painting, Auz and Nico went out and had active conversations within the community in regards to the current uprising. They spoke with prominent community activist Chelsea Higgs Wise about the aims of the protests and the role of womxn leading the way. The artists also led conversations at Girls For A Change’s Camp Diva Garden party with Black girls, about what change they wanted to see for Black girls in their community. They also included a series of readings, which can be found on Nico’s IGTV, that were written by Black Womxn revolutionaries such as : Alice Walker, Audre Lorde, Angela Davis, Maya Angelou, and (with special guest Nadd Harvin) Assata Shakur. During the process of painting, the artists also yielded their space to Reformation Richmond, which held a teach-in which talked about problems with systemic racism, the death and birthday of Fred Hampton, and Virginia legislation in regards to the Marcus David Peters alert, as well as ending qualified immunity. Both measures are currently struggling at the state level.

Purple and White Iris’ for wisdom, the green rose, which was used as a symbol of the underground railroad, and the bird of paradise, selected because it originates in South Africa, and was brought to America through colonization.

Strelitzia reginae, commonly known as the crane flower or bird of paradise,^[3] is a species of flowering plant indigenous to South Africa. An evergreenperennial, it is widely cultivated for its dramatic flowers. In temperate areas it is a popular houseplant.

Taxonomy[edit]

Joseph Banks described the species in 1788.^[2] The specific epithetreginae means “of the queen”, and commemorates the British queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, wife of George III.^[3] Common names such as “crane flower” and “bird of paradise” reference the open flower’s resemblance to the head and beak of a colourful exotic bird.^[4]

Every birder dreams of seeing the world’s most beautiful birds, the incomparable birds-of-paradise! This dream is only made more intense after viewing documentaries such as “ Attenborough in Paradise ” or the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology footage of these truly magnificent birds. This is a drawing I did a while back showing all 43 species of bird-of-paradise. Before I did my Golden Eagle drawing, this was what was hanging above my desk in my room. It took a while for me to find appropriate references for all the species.

Genetic analysis reveals Strelitzia juncea has been shown to be genetically nested within S. reginae. It is possibly a mutation that is in the process of speciating.^[5]

Description[edit]

The plant grows to 2 m (6.6 ft) tall, with large, strong leaves 25–70 cm (9.8–27.6 in) long and 10–30 cm (3.9–11.8 in) broad, produced on petioles up to 1 m (39 in) long. The leaves are evergreen and arranged in two ranks, making a fan-shaped crown. The flowers stand above the foliage at the tips of long stalks. The hard, beak-like sheath from which the flower emerges is termed the spathe. This is placed perpendicular to the stem, which gives it the appearance of a bird's head and beak; it makes a durable perch for holding the sunbirds which pollinate the flowers. The flowers, which emerge one at a time from the spathe, consist of three brilliant orange sepals and three purplish-blue or white petals. Two of the blue or white petals are joined together to form an arrow-like nectary. When the sunbirds sit to drink the nectar, the petals open to cover their feet in pollen.^[6]

Cultivation and uses[edit]

Strelitzia reginae is very popular as an ornamental plant. It was first introduced to Britain in 1773, when it was grown at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Since then, it has been widely introduced around the world, including the Americas and Australia, growing well in any area that is sunny and warm. In the United States, Florida and California are the main areas of cultivation, due to their warm climate. It is a common ornamental plant in Southern California, and has been chosen as the Official Flower of the City of Los Angeles.^[7][8]

In the UK it is normally grown under glass, in a cool sunny position such as a greenhouse or conservatory, as it does not tolerate temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F). However it may be placed outside during the summer months. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.^[9][10]

It is a low-maintenance plant that is easy to grow in the garden; it is fairly tolerant of soil conditions and needs little water once established. If cared for well, they will flower several times in a year. They will thrive in rich loamy soil, especially when they get plenty of water throughout the year. They do well in full sun to semi-shade and respond well to regular feeding with a controlled release fertiliser and compost.^{[citation needed]} They are sensitive to cold and need to be sheltered from frost, as it can damage the flowers and leaves.

Strelitzia reginae is slow-growing and will not bloom until three to five years have passed since germination (though it can exceptionally flower at two years).^[11] It flowers only when properly established and division of the plant may affect flowering patterns. The flowers are, however, quite long-lasting once they appear. Peak flowering is in the winter and early spring. There is a yellow-flowered cultivar of this plant known as ‘Mandela's Gold’.^[12]

It is propagated by seed or division.
