🎯 'A man raped her' instead of 'she was raped.' Have you ever read a headline that reads "A bank was robbed by a suspect?" Nope. It's "A suspect robbed a bank."

A Kehinde Wiley portrait of four Dominicans — two men relaxed on the ground, two women standing, one subject of each gender having white skin while the other has darker skin. The four appear immersed in a backdrop of flowers — an aesthetic signature of Wiley’s work.
