In 1988 Keith created the logo for an organization called Refuse & Resist! R&R! opposed censorship, war and police brutality. The organization dissolved in 2006 but this image still resonates very strongly today & is one of the most widely shared Haring images on the internet.

Prophets of Rage - 1988.————-.Keith was a huge @publicenemy fan. This painting was inspired by a song of the same name by the political hip hop group. It speaks to the unaddressed anger in the Black community that existed then that has still not yet been remedied. @MrChuckD

Today Keith would have been 62 years young. What he was able to accomplish on his brief time on Earth was nothing short of astonishing. The world is still in awe. We do our best to describe the magic he exuded & created but alas, there are no words. Happy birthday Keith 🎂

Keith boldly addressed racial injustice in his work. This 1985 piece was meant to call out the apartheid that was still in place then in South Africa but sadly it strikes a painful nerve in today’s America. #ripgeorgefloyd

Today the Supreme Court ruled that federal civil rights law protects gay, lesbian & transgender workers. It is a landmark ruling that will extend protections to millions of workers nationwide. This ruling was a defeat for the Trump administration. hopefully not the last.

This mural was inspired by the Public Enemy song Don’t Believe The Hype. Keith often painted with PE playing in the background. Shouts to @MrChuckD for the timeless work.
