#10YearsofRacismIsASickness marks a return to a body of work that was never meant to be finished. A decade ago, I created #RacismIsASickness as an act of protest, reflection, and refusal—a declaration that racism is not just a social problem but a systemic disease that infects every part of American life. Ten years later, the diagnosis still holds. The symptoms have mutated. And the need for clarity, reckoning, and healing is more urgent than ever.

This project is not a reenactment. It is a reckoning. A continuation. A challenge to see what we’ve learned—and what we’ve failed to confront—since the original work was completed. By revisiting the stories and portraits of the original participants, I aim to create a powerful bridge between past and present, illuminating the emotional, political, and personal aftermath of a decade marked by trauma, resistance, backlash, and transformation.

Through photography, storytelling, and public engagement, this reboot is designed to spark community dialogue on healing, resilience, and the evolving fight against racial injustice. It is both a commemoration and a call to action.
