'They Speak No Evil (1962), which was painted the year my mother Faith married her second husband Burdette Ringgold, when we were still living in the Bronx’, and one of the earliest works bearing the signature Faith Ringgold, shows six white men standing in a line under a stained-glass window as if in a church, their faces and bodies minimalist abstractions. The title implies that although they speak no evil, they may well have done some evil. Faith often points in her work to the observation that Sunday morning is the most segregated time of day in the United States because people worship separately by race.' - Michele Wallace (catalogue excerpt).
