We Flew Over the Bridge -2005 Faith Ringgold tells her own story in a revealing manner, from her Harlem childhood in the 1930s and 1940s, through college, marriage, motherhood, divorce, and re-marriage in the 1950s and 1960s. Add to that the turbulent and international art scene with the cataclysmic political and racial unrest of the 1960s and 1970s and the birth of feminism.
