“Kara Walker’s silhouettes have played a big role in my work. When you look back at some of my [paintings] from the past, you can see [similar] black silhouettes,” Uman says. She’s also inspired by the Norwegian artist Bjarne Melgaard, at whose studio she previously worked. “He showed me it was OK to make very violent and extreme work. I had always been trying to refine things, but he showed me that you could make these very crude, brutish paintings,” she says.

ANANSI’S GOLD: The Man Who Looted the West, Outfoxed Washington, and Swindled the World, by Yepoka YeeboStop me if you’ve heard this one: A stranger needs to retrieve money stuck in a bank. And to meet this and other administrative costs necessary to unlocking this fortune, would you kindly help him with a little investment? This is known as the advance fee fraud, or “419.”These days, the scams generally target the elderly and the net-illiterate. “They saw Blay-Miezah, in his chief’s finery, spinning a tale about darkest Africa, untold wealth and a corrupt leader,” Yeebo writes. “And because the story — and the man — fit their preconceptions like a dovetail joint, they made up the rest of the story for themselves.”
