Interpretation of the painting

The lines in the pavement:

I think the lines in the pavement are a symbol to show the future, the present, and the past of Afro-American people.

(slavery, segregation and desegregation, a new world)

The crack in the wall:

The crack may represent racist people. It looks like a graph and there are fewer people who are racist.

It can represent the hope of Afro-American people. There is more hope for black people.

The feelings of Ruby:

Ruby is brave and strong. She is going to school but she looks like a soldier.
