This week’s inaugural live panel, led by Rebecca Traister, featured Isolde Brielmaier, Paola Ramos, and Kimberly Drew. They discussed women, labor, and leadership.

Despite her decades spent contributing to and pioneering in American art, Ringgold’s work was long overlooked, a testament to the ways in which Black women’s labor — creative and otherwise — is systemically undervalued.

She has authored two books, This Is What I Know About Art and Black Futures , which she co-edited with Jenna Wortham. Recently, Kimberly joined Pace Gallery as an associate director.
