Josh Gibson color study on eBay...
 
Hey all,

Hope this post finds everyone warm and happy.

As I'm sure the majority of you know, the political and humanitarian climate as of late has been pretty volatile. It's effected all of us in some way, no matter what side we're on.

Personally, over the last few days, I've really felt like I've had to do something. Anything. In light of that, I've decided to auction off this color study of Josh Gibson.

100% of the proceeds will be donated to the International Rescue Committee, which is currently committed to helping refugees already in the United States reclaim their lives through necessary and immediate aid on arrival and beyond—including housing, cultural orientation, health care, education, employment, and immigration services.

I have NO desire to drum up any political fights (or any fights, for that matter) on here, so please, if it's a cause you don't have a taste for, or if you disagree with my stance on things, feel free to move on.

However, if you're on the side of this NP, please consider helping in some way, be it through bidding, donating, or even just sharing it with friends.

Either way, thanks so much for reading!

Good luck, Graig. As I had said in an email, we all might have our own political ideas but I don't think anyone wants to see anyone else suffer. And here is a pre-post warning. If anyone starts getting too political their post might be edited or deleted.

As with nearly everybody here, my ancestors were immigrants to the US. And, in fact, my maternal ancestors immigrated to the US after being expelled for their religion from their native country.
