When Faith Ringgold graduated from high school in 1948 she headed to the City College of New York to sign up for an art degree. When the bemused college administrators informed her she wouldn’t be able to attend, Ringgold refused to budge. I’m chatting to Ringgold at ACA, the New York gallery that has been representing her since 1995. “I don’t stop until it is done.”• Faith Ringgold is at the Serpentine Gallery, London, 8 June to 8 September. An Evening with Faith Ringgold is at the Conway Hall, London, 6 June.
