In the Crfritz Art Center quilt 12 (War & Freedom: African American Veterans Hail the Commander-in-Chief ) stood out to me more because of the details. The red,white, and blue which represents the United States flag. The quilt also has letters from people, articles, and also mentions Amendent 15 which all caught my eye. On this quilt Carole also has pictures related to war and a article about Obama making history. Carole's message through her quilt basically states that our nation has overcome its struggles.(war,and segregation,etc.) For example, many years ago African Americans and Caucasians couldn't even attend the same schools, use the same bathroom, go to the same restaurant, or even live in the same neighborhood. Now African Americans and Caucasians are able to come together and attend the same schools,use the same bathroom, go to the same resraurants, and live in the same neighborhood. Obama becoming president has proven that our nation has really changed.
