Excuse Me, Alayo Akinkugbe
Q: How do you balance personal voice with rigorous art historical context in the book?
I aimed for a conversational tone that remains accessible, while still engaging with critical topics, so that readers don't need specialized training to understand and benefit from the material.

Q: Why did you choose Instagram as the vessel to start A Black History of Art?
Because it felt approachable, allowed me to write in my own voice, and served as a low-pressure way to do research and build an audience for self-education.
