Faith Ringgold is an American artist, writer, and activist born in 1930 in Harlem, New York City. She is best known for her narrative quilts, which combine painting, quilting, and storytelling to explore themes of race, gender, and identity. Ringgold began her career as a painter in the 1950s, but it was not until the 1970s that she began to incorporate quilting into her work. Her most famous quilt, "Who's Afraid of Aunt Jemima?" (1983), is a powerful critique of racial stereotypes and the commercialization of black culture. In addition to her visual art, Ringgold is also a prolific writer, having published several children's books and an autobiography. Throughout her career, she has been a vocal advocate for social justice and has used her art to raise awareness about issues such as racism, sexism, and police brutality. Today, Ringgold is considered one of the most important African American artists of the 20th century.
