A business card for Jennifer White-Johnson. The card is square shaped. The front of the card features black text of varying sizes set against a gradient rainbow background. The text reads [JEN WHITE-JOHNSON / ART / ACTIVISM / EDUCATION / CAREWORK / ADVOCACY / jwhitetorres@gmail.com / jenwhitejohnson.com / instagram · twitter / @jtknoxroxs]. The back of the card features a photographic image of Jennifer White-Johnson and Kevin “Knox” Johnson III. Both White-Johnson and Johnson are depicted from the shoulders up. White-Johnson has her back to the viewer and Johnson is shown in profile on her proper right side, facing his mother. Both are cast in shadow, obscuring their features. Johnson has his proper left arm draped over his mother’s shoulders. White-Johnson’s hair has been pulled up into a top knot. In the background is a sunset that has been graphically enhanced with added gradient blue, magenta, and oranges.
