Interpretation of the painting (1)

Interpretation of the painting

 

The school things:

Ruby has 2 copybooks in her hand, one brown book and one blue with white stars.

She has a ruler and two pens.

I think the ruler is for the new rules of desegregation. She has the power to change the future in her hands. She has the power to write the new rules a UNiTED country.

 

The crack in the wall:

There is a crack in the wall separating the racist slur “nigger”.

I believe it shows the change of mentalities. It’s the end of racism.

 

The pavement:

The pavement may symbolize a timeline for Afro-Americans: the past (slavery), the present (segregation and desegregation), the future (a new better world).
