About Meg Jo
Meg Jo is an artist-activist-scholar in Nashville, TN. She began painting during the 2016 presidential election. Prior to pursuing art, Meg worked as an organizer in her home state of Alabama. Her paintings tell a story of the twisted internal endeavor of activism she has faced and continues to live. Meg is currently a PhD student of sociology at Vanderbilt University where she specializes in power and the emotional labor of activism. Meg employs her art as a tool to supplement her research and deepen its impact. Her inspiration stems from the late-greats Toni Morrison, James Baldwin, Langston Hughes, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Zora Neale Hurston, and the phenomenal living icons bell hooks, Angela Davis, and adrienne maree brown. A strong believer in the use of arts for social change, Meg also works as a creative research consultant. Please feel free to get in touch for more information.
