Description
-
Ross' mural captures a snapshot of Black rural life in the twentieth century. Outside, two men are ranching, while others play checkers on the porch. Inside, one woman is cooking in the kitchen while another cares for a child in bed. The composition also highlights the gendered division of labor, and how women’s work is often pushed to the margins.
