At the Myteeshirtpalace-Official Peace Love Pumpkin Halloween Shirt of Textured Waves’ mission is the oft-forgotten importance of image culture and image-making. “We all had a shared experience—when you search for Black surfers, there was one image that popped up,” Black Lyons explains. “It was a White savior pushing an African American child into the wave, and that wasn’t our experience surfing. We wanted to shift that narrative.” The importance of creating this imagery is not just rooted in present social structures but also in a fundamental desire to see Black youth rise to prominence within the sport in the future. “We aren’t the pinnacle,” Woody adds. “The pinnacle is the next generation who will be so much better than us.”But symbolism is only one aspect of what Textured Waves hopes to achieve. There is a particular urgency behind creating more pathways to water sports for Black youth. “Black children are five times more likely to drown than white children, according to the CDC,” Black Lyons shares, in part because of a lack of access to training and a prevalent Western assumption that Black people do not belong in the sea.
