Ten adults fight, flee or die over the 12-foot span of American People Series #20: Die, as an interracial pair of children cowers in their midst. While Faith Ringgold was devising this bloody spectacle in the summer of 1967, civil unrest was convulsing black neighbourhoods and protests were escalating against the war in Viet Nam. As she later explained, she developed the work 'to create an art relevant to black people', and her apocalyptic vision speaks differently to diverse audiences in and beyond the art world.
