In response to the death of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery. Martinez released an unlimited edition print Racism Doesn\u2019t Rest During a Pandemic Pee Chee (No Justice No Peace). The Pee Chee Folder project was inspired by an original artwork by Martinez, portraying hand-painted portraits of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery on a traditional school folder to shed light on the recent police killings of Black people and long-standing racism in America. It also documents elements of the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic including masked essential workers and the the phrase &#8220;Zoom Class 11AM.&#8221;\u00a0 The inside of the folder features Martinez&#8217;s &#8220;10 Rules of Survival If Stopped by the Police.&#8221;\u00a0 Through this play of images, text, and symbols, Martinez captures the heartbeat of 2020, paying tribute to those who tragically lost their lives to racism and the countless workers who put their lives in danger everyday to serve the public.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>\u201cWith these works my intention is to cement these people within the context of my art at the same time memorializing them.

Johnson was one of the Black female mathematicians whose story was detailed in the award-winning 2016 film Hidden Figures.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson was a NASA mathematician whose calculations of orbital mechanics were critical in turning the tides of the Space Race by helping John Glenn, in the Mercury vessel Friendship 7, become the first American to orbit the Earth. Johnson went on to calculate the precise trajectories that would let Apollo 11 land on the moon in 1969 and, after Neil Armstrong\u2019s history-making moonwalk, let it return to Earth. She was the first African-American woman to attend graduate school at West Virginia University. Johnson accomplished all this and more while living in the age of Jim Crow. Despite her outstanding work and determination, Johnson was largely forgotten by history until now. In 2015, President Barack Obama awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom and in 2017 NASA dedicated a building in her honor. Lia Halloran&#8217;s body of work inspires us all to continue to find the lost, unsung(s) heroes of history.<\/p>\n<p>Friendship Launch, After Katherine Johnson was created as part of a limited edition of 50 prints which could be purchased with a minimum donation of $150 to Chapman\u2019s<a href=\"https:\/\/chapman.campuslabs.com\/engage\/organization\/black-student-union\"> Black Student Union<\/a> or<a href=\"https:\/\/bailproject.org\/\"> The Bail Project<\/a> or both.
