Abstract mixed-media painter Mary Lovelace O’Neal, who passed away this past Sunday, grew up in Jackson, Mississippi. At that time, cultural institutions like art museums were segregated: Black people were permitted to visit only on certain days of the month. How much has changed since those days — not least thanks to Lovelace O’Neal herself, who was active in the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s under the mentorship of the likes of Stokely Carmichael and Jacob Lawren
