Free Women of Color – women of African descent living outside the bonds of slavery during the pre-Civil War period in the United States – were part of a diverse, dynamic segment of society and often played crucial matriarchal roles in their families.
With My Name in Your Hand, by researcher and poet Angela Williams Bickham and artist Sawyer Rose, memorializes the vibrant lives of these free Black women through large-scale sculpture and historical fiction as poetry.
