Description
-
This mural by an unknown student artist reflects themes of emancipation and progress. The central figure of a shirtless Black man raises his fist, while broken chains dangle from his waist. Bales of cotton and chains signify slavery in the mural, while, on the right, Black men in various professions represent changes brought by emancipation.
