God Bless America Tea Towel

by Faith Ringgold

This tea towel reproduces artist Faith Ringgold's work American People Series #13: God Bless America (1964), painted during the height of the American Civil Rights movement, where the legal system enforced white prejudice against African Americans.
Using the symbols in the American flag to protest racism and sexism, Ringgold reckons with issues of American identity and democracy: free speech, estrangement, citizenship, and belonging.

A functional product for use in your kitchen or adorn your wall with it as artwork framed and proudly displayed.
