A sculpture made up of six arms cast in fiberglass suspended from a frame attached to the ceiling. The arms belong to Tommie Smith the 1968 Olympic Gold Medalist in the 200 meter race. The arms represent the gesture Tommie made when he received his medal in 1968; he wore a black glove and put his arm up in the air while making a fist to bring public attention to the ongoing struggle of African Americans in the United States of America.
