♣ Ringgold, nascida 20bet sports 1930 20bet sports Harlem durante o Renascimento de Harlem, draws inspiration from ♣ the tumultuous social realities she lived through. As a student, her formal initiation in the arts was almost curtailed by ♣ the City College of New York's regulations of the time, which restricted women to specific majors - art not being ♣ one of them. However, Ringgold's determination led her to strike a deal with a school administrator: her art studies were ♣ contingent upon primarily enrolling in the school of education, where women were allowed. ♣
After earning her bachelor's degree in fine art ♣ and education in 1955, Ringgold began teaching art in public schools while developing her own art.

Série "The American People"
♣ Entre 1963 e 1967, Ringgold portrayed fraught race relations in America in ♣ a series of paintings titled "The American People Series." The series' final painting, "American People Series 20: Die," is a ♣ vivid critique of the violent riots of the Civil Rights era. The painting, arguably the series' most famous, gruesomely depicts ♣ a group of men, women and children brutally attacking one another. It is now part of the Museum of Modern ♣ Art's permanent collection.
♣ "I became fascinated with the ability of art to document the time, place, and cultural identity of the ♣ artist," she told the Museum of Modern Art. "How could I, as an African American woman artist, document what was ♣ happening around me?"
♣ Ringgold's early work did not enjoy much success at the time, driving the mother of two to take ♣ her activism to the streets for causes such as women's representation - especially of Black women - in mainstream art ♣ exhibitions and collections. In 1970, Ringgold was arrested and charged with desecrating the American flag for co-organizing the "People's Flag ♣ Show," an exhibition protesting against the Vietnam War, and for artists' First Amendment right to use the flag as material. ♣
"They ♣ didn't keep me in for long because the media was watching," she told the New York Times of her sentencing. ♣
