For 34-year-old Oakland artist Favianna Rodriguez, merging activism and art is something that comes natural. The curly-haired industrious champion of the disenfranchised is unafraid to speak her mind, verbally or through her colorful prints and digital art. Although she’s won many awards, Rodriguez has a genuine humility and calmness about her that belies her firebrand spirit and her in-your-face work.
