Four years ago, artist, tenants’ rights advocate, and Commissioner Debra Walker wrote this about her friend Kamala Harris: “She is a smart fighter. She is aiming at the White House in more ways than one. Look to her to provide the leadership forward.”
Those words proved to be prophetic, as Harris is now the Vice President-elect. Walker pays tribute to her and to President-elect Joe Biden with this issue’s cover. It commemorates a moment that many of us have been waiting for since 2016, and brings hope when we need it the most during this challenging year.
Walker, who was appointed by Mayor London Breed to the San Francisco Arts Commission in March, is known for her urban landscapes displayed at SFO, office buildings, restaurants, galleries, and more. The work featured on the San Francisco Bay Times cover is therefore unique among those pieces, and even more so given her longstanding connection to, and steadfast support of, Harris.
