“A Synonym For Art: Rodgric J.” by Kasey L. Martin

Rodgric J. believes that tattoos are a form of art and expression, and that they represent a unifying experience that is both painful and beautiful, much like life itself. He also speaks out against the negative stereotypes perpetuated by the media, which often associate tattoos with a "thug mentality" for Black men. Instead, he sees tattoos as a way to fight back against these stereotypes and to embrace one's individuality. This perspective challenges us to rethink our preconceived notions about tattoos and to see them as a powerful form of self-expression and resistance.
