Artist Statement - Stewart Ross - Michael's Offfice

Artist Statement                               Stewart Ross

This drawing is explaining the Civil Rights
Act of 1866. The drawing that says “before” is showing an African-American before the act took place. It is explaining how African-Americans had no rights before the act. African-Americans were considered 3/5 of a person before the act. The drawing labeled “after” is showing how African-Americans were equal after the act. A lot of people did not like the act but it still happened.
