	Leon Kennedy Harriet Tubman Photo: Dan Meyers In 1978, Leon Kennedy began painting on bedsheets because he ran out of canvas. “My work deals with the Black man’s fight to be free,” he says. “My earlier work deals with art for art’s sake.

And it doesn’t matter which color does the hating. It’s just plain wrong." Featured in the "Race, Class, Gender ≠ Character" Exhibition, Nov 4 - Feb 4, 2007
