What is the pregnant Africa-American woman with her raised fist supposed to represent?

When you look into the googly eyes I just pasted on, you will see its soul transcends color.
What did you mean by that, please elaborate and tell us how you really feel...not that you're trying to hide it that much.

It was paper mache. It won't last as long as this circlejerk.

How I really feel is that the statue looked like a GLP craft project and if you --or anyone -- thinks it's a fitting a symbol of enduring freedom for black Americans...then you might be a racist.
I have no problem with the fact that it was a representation of a pregnant, black woman. I have a problem with how poorly constructed and cheap it is...and that it wound up face down in a pile of garbage because it is constructed of material that disintegrates in rain.
Maybe you think that's fitting though.
I don't.
Also, I didn't want to get into a 'color' discussion. My point was purely about how poorly made it was.
I think black Americans deserve better. The statue is/was a mockery to them.
Art is subjective. I'd like to know what YOU think is fitting about it and why you revere it?

You made one off the most disgusting comments I've ever seen on this site and I called you out and you're too much of and coward to own up to it.
Instead you deflected and put words in myself mouth, I never said I liked the statue.
Elaborate how googly eyes transcend color you coward, you said it why are you too cowardice to own up to it?
Your next deflection should be interesting. This thread is a sick joke.
Bunch of arm chair racists openly making racist remarks and the amount of stars they are getting tells me how much some of ats feels about people of color.
