Artist Rakiba Lanise

From the AfroShe Collection, Rakiba Lanise created a special collection of seven original pieces to donate for the raffle. This collection celebrates Black beauty, culture, identity, and legacy through bold color and intentional storytelling. Each piece reflects themes of Black womanhood, ancestry, faith, resilience, joy, and self-definition.

Created to do more than decorate a space, these works are meant to affirm, inspire, and keep Black art visible and valued. This donation to the NAACP Youth Fashions for Freedom Raffle is given with the hope that the recipient will either enjoy the artwork in their own home or gift it to someone else as a meaningful expression of love, pride, and community.

Art is legacy. Art is freedom. Art is ours.
