Taimani Reed a mom of two from Portland, Oregon, who is also a photographer, brand designer and illustrator, recently launched "A is for Ally," a collection of art which "focuses on the ABCs of acceptance and words associated with oppression," GMA reports.

"I just couldn't figure out how to talk to my kids," Reed told Good Morning America. "I was watching George Floyd yelling for his mama and my own kid was like, 'Mama, what's wrong?' That was such an emotional moment. I didn't want to tell him, 'The world is horrible,' but I also didn't want him to grow up not knowing."
