The Unheard Voice
"The Unheard Voice" by Dantrel Bonae Boone
A powerful reflection of Black resilience in a world that often demands silence. In this striking piece, a Black child sits among vibrant yellow and fuchsia florals—America's illusion of beauty and prosperity—but their hands cover their mouth, a symbol of the voices suppressed, the truths ignored. Dressed in a blue shirt, they radiate innocence, yet bear the weight of generations forced into quiet.
Boone’s work challenges viewers to confront the reality behind the façade, to acknowledge the voices that have been dismissed, and to question the structures that uphold silence. "The Unheard Voice" is more than art—it’s a statement, a demand, and a testament to the power of expression.
