Southern Trees Bear Strange Fruit....I have a copy of the book called: "Without Sanctuary". It is a photographic essay documenting lynchings here in the southern United States. Thanks for sharing this art work with me and others that are a witness to your journey as a very profound fine artist.

...OooOooh sooooo much Deep rooted bloodshed !!! and still today as in your depiction no lose of blood but still the stabbing continues .. no ropes around our necks ...but .....our hands ...our hearts and our minds....only the blood of Jesus Christ washes away that guilty stain and in Him Peace is found !!! So Moving... nearly to tears !!! I see a figure.... sitting ..face to the elders at the base of this tree...............
