In the debut issue of The Stance, we feature Mickalene Thomas in A Stance On: Care. Following her exhibition at the Grand Palais in Paris, she reflects on responsibility, community, and the quiet power of showing up for one another — a reminder that humanity begins with care, and every role matters.
