In November 1970, People’s Flag Show was held at New York’s Judson Memorial Church. The exhibition was designed as an open call for artworks interpreting the U.S. flag, in a direct remonstrance of laws limiting its use and display. More than 150 works filled the church, many inherently political or even incendiary in their manipulation of the flag. Faith Ringgold designed People’s Flag Show Poster to publicize the exhibition 

After a performance in which a flag was burned, three of the organizing artists—Jon Hendricks, Jean Toche, and Ringgold, dubbed “the Judson Three”—were arrested and subsequently charged with desecration of the U.S. flag. A protracted, costly, and ultimately failed legal battle ensued over the fundamental right of artistic license. 

Hey anon,

That doesn’t sound like a healthy relationship with your therapist. I know it’s hard to find a therapist, but can you try? Is your therapist part of a larger practice or her own practice? Because if it’s a larger practice, you could potentially try seeing someone else in the practice.

If that’s not possible, please try to make some boundaries with your therapist. Sometimes I find writing out your complaints gives them more weight when dealing with someone who blames you for their mistakes. Here are our resources on setting boundaries:
