Towel: women freedom now

Towel: Women Freedom Now - This towel is a reproduction of African American artist Faith Ringgold's work, Woman Freedom Now (1971). The striking and powerful color combination of red, black, and green represents black rights and the Pan-African flag. Use it as a functional product in your kitchen, or adorn it on your wall as a piece of art to frame and display proudly. \n \nArtist, author, educator, and organizer Faith Ringgold (b. 1930, New York, NY) is one of the most influential cultural figures of her generation, with a career that bridges the multidisciplinary practices of the Harlem Renaissance with the political art of young Black artists today. For sixty years, Ringgold has drawn on personal autobiography and collective histories to document her life as an artist and mother and to amplify struggles for social justice and equity. From creating some of the most indelible artworks of the civil rights era to challenging accepted hierarchies between art and craft through her experimental quilts, Faith Ringgold has produced a body of work that speaks to the complexity of the American experience.
