This is a beautiful and inspiring book
This is a beautiful and inspiring book, which I highly recommend to anyone interested in quilts and/or African American history. I bought the book after seeing "And Still we Rise" at the Bullock Museum in Austin, in honor of the 150th anniversary of Juneteenth. The beauty of the quilts and the poignancy of the history took my breath away. Happily, the book captures the essence of the exhibit.

After having seen the actual quilts in person at a museum in Austin, Tx, it is great memento to have to be able to view and relive the experience that it presented. Well done a large book but not too large. Perfect size.
Visually beautiful and intellectually enlightening
Recognizes the value of the fiber arts as an important part of African American Art. In addition this volume provides remarkable stories of some of the lesser known yet significant historical events in black history. Visually beautiful and intellectually enlightening.

I am so excited to see such a great degree of creativity and inspiration for me as a quilter. I adore the thought process of each quilt. I am sure each quilter has gratitude and appreciation of opportunity to have their work displayed for the world to see.
