A big ornamental F coloured in purple with green vines and leaves tangled around it, forms the first letter for the words 'Fucking Fuckity Fuck' calligraphed in blackletter script in dark blue ink. The vines extend from the bottom of the F to form an underline of green vines and blue flowers beneath the writing.

good morning Americans

if you wish to engrave something upon your heart, first inscribe it with your hands and profess it with your voice.

#calligraphy #handwriting #fourthofjuly #july4th

(long text warning) Two sheets of cursive brush calligraphy in metallic ink reading: What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; a day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanksgivings, with all your religious parade, and solemnity, are, to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy—a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices, more shocking and bloody, than are the people of these United States, AT THIS VERY HOUR. Frederick Douglass 1852
