Hello, for lack of knowledge, I am butting in here to ask a question about a piece of work by an African-American artist in pen and ink. The image is of a giant-sized slave with an observation deck around his neck. On the deck more modern A-A's peer into the distance. It is a compelling piece, brining history and today together. I hope someone can tell me the name of the work and its artist. Thanks. Lonnie

I'm pretty disappointed about the number of red links here. Almost all of them I've heard of and thought they were quite famous. Since my major is Fine Arts I'm probably more familiar than most, but I wouldn't consider African American art history something I know too much about as a whole other than one class.

Still this is just a start based on one source. I just tried to google a good single reference to get the article into existance so hopefully others will make it actually good. I'm kind of concentrated on the Composers Wikiproject though. Hopefully I and others will fill out the red links and better organize and write the information as the wikipedia process takes its course. --Sketchee 13:04, Jan 25, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] William Harmon

The link to William Harmon goes to another person by the same name. Should this be disambiguated somehow? The philanthropist William E. Harmon is referenced in the article, rather than the poet who is linked to.
