Women get weary, but they don't give up, Windsor Hills, 1991, exterior of National Council of Negro Women, 3720 West 54th Street (at Mullen Avenue). Seated on benches in front are educator Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune (founder of NCNW in 1935) and current [as of 1998] president Dr. Dorothy Height, plus several anonymous older African-American women; all of their faces express pride and strength. Standing behind them, and benefiting from their courage and perseverance, are entertainer Josephine Baker, TV personality Oprah Winfrey, jazz vocalist Sarah Vaughan and Olympic runner Florence Griffith-Joyner. In acrylic, approximately 9' x 16' by Alice Patrick, assisted by Daryl Wells, D. McClelland and Domminic McIntyre.
