When Supreme Models was released in 2019, I couldn’t have imagined we’d be standing in a moment where anti-Blackness, anti-intellectualism, and the systematic erasure of a people’s history could be so openly normalized—sanctioned, even, by institutions meant to serve and protect all of us.

Happy Black History Month. 💫🤩⭐️
