Kieve and Oliver talk about Kehinde Wiley’s Portrait of Obama. Wiley paints black and brown folk in street close posed as famous portraits and statues to give power and history back to folks who have had theirs erased in Western centric museums. The pair discuss President Obama’s choice of a fantastical portrait as well as the significance of different elements of the painting.
