Abstract	In this article, the author shares research into five images by artists whose work responded to and helped shape the Black Power movement: Emory Douglas's "Don't Support the Greedy," Betye Saar's "The Liberation of Aunt Jemima," Barbara Jones-Hogu's "Relate to Your Heritage," Elizabeth Catlett's "Malcolm X Speaks for Us," and Barkley Hendricks's "Lawdy Ma." These works address different aspects of the movement, community involvement, confronting stereotypes, cultural identity, political engagement, and individual identity. "Teaching for Black Lives" asks educators to include Black lives in all curriculum areas and show students that Black people have always been active participants in society and their liberation (Watson et al., 2018). In discussing the artists and ideas of the Black Power movement, the author shares she engaged middle school students with these artists and asks art educators to consider how their curriculum could grow to include more artists of color.
