In honor of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we’ve partnered with the Asian American Advocacy Fund (AAAF) to feature a pop-up exhibit titled Threads of Justice. Inspired by the 1985 Garment Workers’ strike in Chinatown, Threads of Justice honors Asian American stories with the hope of creating a better future for AAPI communities.
Threads of Justice features the works of 12 artists: Leah Abucayan, Helen Choi, Sayma Hossain, Tanjina Islam, Herok Kim, Wihro Kim, Killamari, Gabby Lee, Neha Patel, Sanithna Pansavanh, Ghazal Qadri, and Jonny Warren. Most of the artists are based in Georgia.
Threads of Justice will be featured at The Center from May 11 – May 31, 2024.
Susan Carol, a gifted vocalist from Fort Worth, TX, was destined to sing. Raised in a musical family, she found solace in poetry from a young age, which evolved into her authentic songwriting. Her voice transformed from a high soprano to a sultry alto with a unique texture.
Inspired by legends like Billie Holiday, Jazmine Sullivan, and Gladys Knight, Susan's music combines sincerity with tonal depth. After her debut project "Alchemy" in 2016, she took time for personal growth before returning with a more confident sound. Her upcoming sophomore release, slated for summer 2024, promises to be her most mature yet, blending R&B, pop, and soul influences. Susan Carol defies categorization, delivering soulful music with a message of love and authenticity.
