Kehinde Wiley, the artist who painted Barack Obama’s official presidential portrait, has responded to several men who have accused him of sexual assault.
In 2021, Ghanaian artist Joseph Awuah-Darko claimed Wiley sexually assaulted him twice.
On his Instagram, Awuah-Darko wrote, “On 9th June 2021 – I was sexually assaulted by @kehindewiley. It almost destroyed me.”
Activist Derrick Ingram has also come out and accused Wiley of rape.
