Description
"God Is A Woman" is the cover art to an article that was going to be written by our staff entitled "'God Is A Woman', Is Life Imitating Art?" The basis for the article was the tweet by comedian Pete Davidson in whom the New York Police Department took as a suicide note. At the time of the tweet, Davidson's fiance, Ariana Grande had just called off their engagement. Insiders believed Davidson was distraught. Prior to this incident, prisoner-artist Donald "C-Note" Hooker submitted to the Columbia Journal's Incarcerated Writers Initiative a 5,000 word short story entitled, "God Is A Woman." C-Note stated, Grande's song encouraged him to publish a piece of prose that shared the sentiment, "God Is A Woman"; he hadn't beforehand, as he feared it would be deemed blasphemy. The story's lead character, a prisoner with over twenty years of incarceration, had just made a near fatal suicide attempt on his life. It was these seemingly random connections to which we approached C-Note for a cover art piece to our article. However, due to a recent suicide in C-Note's own family, and another newly discovered death, we decided to let him write the article due to his long time activism in mental health.
