"THIS IS WHAT I KNOW ABOUT ART" BY KIMBERLY DREWK



I couldn't enroll in classes for the fall semester due to financial holds on my account. I took on the maximum number of work-study hours and petitioned for a private loan to support myself. page 13
In this quote, money was a problem for Drew because she could not join the college before paying the money, so she was forced to work and study at the same time and take a loan as well, this will put pressure on the students because the financial can cover all the money of the cors and a part of it is possible. We have to pay the other part and force us to work to pay it so that we do not pay a late fine as well. There must be more aid such as installment singing the finances without paying late fines the loan is also a problem because when we graduate we have to pay the loan with interest and all this needs many years and benefits is a problem because it is money that I have not benefited from, but I am forced to pay it to complete my success path.

In my life, I have made a point of telling stories of triumph. I have had to fight so many battles to succeed that I want to maintain an agency with how my story is told. page 27
 
Drew said this sentence because the professor of art history adviser told her "If you wanted to be in a classroom with other students of color then you should not have enrolled in art history classes".  in this quote, our lives always have battles with the people who live around us, including white, black, foreign Arab, Indian, Chinese, Spanish, and English, and we are all from different places. We must deal with that we are one battle with the path of our success. Sometimes we fall and sometimes we succeed, but the fall must fight with him to reach the desired degree of success and we do not let the fall stop us at the point of failure.  Drew also fought with the idea of white guilt, which works to recognize the unacquired and unfair racial privileges, and worked to fight this idea so that you can reach success in the field of art and reach black artists to complete its story and pride in African American art.

"There was a point in my career where I feared my anger" page 59

We can all have moments of fear and that fear of failure is from our view towards our future and the fear that the future will be difficult or easy, but the fear of anger can be positive or negative for some people, but drew use it positively and used it to change, research or fight for what is a mistake of society and also used her anger as a form of strength to pursue her career and also to start the movement to protest and change.
