Wow, Caitlin. You captured her so beautifully. Her anguish and her love for humanity at the same time. But i see you in there too. As well as the rest of us. So powerful. ♥️♥️♥️

The abject failure of humanity and ensuing pain and suffering is captured in her eyes. Mad respect for her…

I crossed paths with Media at the Havana Airport in Dec.2023. When I realized who she was (I don't usually meet such great political figures everyday) I offered both praise and thanks for what she has essentially devoted her life to. After less than a minute it was clear she wasn't interested in my praise at all - she asked me what was the purpose of my travels, then informed me she was there to deliver food aid to the starving Cubans. Standing less than 5-feet tall and under 100-lbs. Media is a giant - a force for exposing the rotten power structures in the US and beyond. Thank you Caitlin for highlighting her and for the great insights and tireless effort to expose the rot. Be well sister.

What a beautiful soul Madea is and you’ve captured that fighting spirit in her eyes: a fight against fascism, brutality and injustice, but most of all a fight against GENOCIDE. She rocks and so do you, Caitlin. What a wonderful artist you are.🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸☮️

Her eyes carry the weight of the genocide, witnessed and recorded.

What an honor to someone who have been such a powerful voice against fascism and has role modeled for so many others! Beautifully done Caitlin.
