Echoes of Courage: Brenda

Silkscreen and Inkjet Print, 34" x 47", 2025


Echoes of Courage: Brenda is a portrait of a young woman with disabilities who lives a full and rich life. She loudly denounces Donald Trump’s harsh and cruel measures that show very clearly “his lack of respect for them, their rights and especially their humanity.”

"We are not invisible. We are not disposable. And we will not stay silent while our livelihoods, our homes, and our futures are under attack.

We deserve to be heard. We deserve to be safe. We deserve to live.”

“No somos invisibles. No somos desechables. Y no nos quedaremos callados mientras nuestros medios de vida, nuestros hogares y nuestro futuro sean atacados.

Merecemos ser escuchados. Merecemos estar seguros. Merecemos vivir.”

 

-Brenda Gutierrez Baeza
