Faith Ringgold: ‘I Didn’t Want People to Be Able to Look, and Look Away’
In 1970, Religion Ringgold made her first huge sale. Chase Manhattan Financial institution nearly purchased “Flag for the Moon,” a portray that reminded them of a Jasper Johns — till they realized these stars and stripes had been letters spelling a violent racial slur.
So as an alternative they picked “The American Spectrum” (1969), a row of summary faces painted in a gradient of pores and skin tones from darkish to mild. As Ringgold, her daughter Michele Wallace and Kirsten Weiss write in FAITH RINGGOLD: POLITICS / POWER (Weiss Publications, $49.95), the piece was initially referred to as “Six Shades of Black,” however the brand new title “was deemed extra amenable to collectors and fewer more likely to encourage inconvenient questions on ethnic and racial representations.” The financial institution paid $3,000 for it, and nonetheless has it right this moment.
However a reputation is simply that, and as this guide reveals, all of Ringgold’s work within the ’60s and ’70s pushes the viewer towards simply such questions: in regards to the whiteness of girls’s liberation, in regards to the exclusion of Black artists from the institution, about felony justice. The oil work, collages, photographs and textiles herein hint 25 years of U.S. historical past by the eyes of a key determine within the Black Energy and Black feminist actions. “I didn’t need folks to have the ability to look, and look away,” she says. “I need to seize their eyes and maintain them, as a result of that is America.”

As NFL finger gun celebrations increase, so do the penalties and fines
By now, you’ve seen it. A player makes a big catch or run for a first down or a touchdown. He jumps up, extends an arm, sticks out his index finger and raises his thumb to create an imaginary gun. Generally, the “shots” are fired downfield in the direction of no one in particular. But the flags still have followed for the unsportsmanlike conduct, which is a 15-yard penalty.
The NFL is sending the message that it is done with finger guns following eight penalties and fines on players for such celebrations in the first four weeks of the season. Two more players were flagged for finger gun motions, which the NFL considers a violent gesture, on Sunday. Week 5 fines will be announced Saturday afternoon.
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London drew a flag and a fine in Week 2 for the gesture. In Week 3, New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers drew penalties twice for violent gestures. A pair of $14,069 fines followed. Five players — Dallas Cowboys receiver CeeDee Lamb, New Orleans Saints defensive backs Marshon Lattimore and Alontae Taylor, New York Jets wideout Allen Lazard and Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols — in Week 4 were punished for the celebration.
The players were fined an average of $12,697.50 for those eight infractions. Cincinnati Bengals wideout Andrei Iosivas also was flagged and fined for unsportsmanlike conduct in Week 2, when he pantomimed shooting a bow and arrow following a touchdown against the Kansas City Chiefs, but he appealed the $5,305 fine and won.
Indianapolis Colts receiver Josh Downs earned a penalty for pointing downfield in Week 5, as did Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton. Yet Lamb and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster were not penalized for celebrating first-down plays with similar gestures in last week’s games, though that does not preclude eventual fines.
Slayton noted the officiating discrepancy on X.

The NFL’s rules on unsportsmanlike conduct are as follows:
There shall be no unsportsmanlike conduct. This applies to any act which is contrary to the generally understood principles of sportsmanship. Such acts specifically include, among others: (a) Throwing a punch, or a forearm, or kicking at an opponent, even though no contact is made. (b) Using abusive, threatening, or insulting language or gestures to opponents, teammates, officials, or representatives of the League. (c) Using baiting or taunting acts or words that may engender ill will between teams. (d) Any violent gesture, or an act that is sexually suggestive or offensive.
London said he regretted his celebration, which mimed shooting a machine gun in the air. Three days prior, the Falcons had hosted the football team from Georgia’s Apalachee High School, where two students and two teachers were killed in a shooting on Sept. 4.
It may feel like a sudden crackdown, but NFL and team officials as well as players in NFLPA leadership roles say the league’s distaste for such acts is nothing new. The NFL has a long-running rule that discourages players from making any kind of violent gestures on the field. In addition to finger guns, this includes throat slashing and gang signs. In 2022, the league fined 13 Pittsburgh Steelers players $4,715 to $13,261 for a choreographed machine-gun-like interception celebration. In 2023, Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson and tight end David Njoku were both fined $13,569 for a gun-themed celebration. Those are just two examples from prior seasons.
The NFL and the NFL Players Association collectively bargain an on-field code of conduct for all players. Fines, per the NFL rulebook, “are donated to the Professional Athletes Foundation to support Legends in need and the NFL Foundation to further support the health, safety and wellness of athletes across all levels, including youth football and the communities that support the game.”
Two NFL directors of player development said the penalties and fines weren’t a new initiative or point of emphasis by the league, which has cracked down on taunting in recent seasons. Instead, they said, players have just begun using the finger guns celebration with greater frequency.
One high-ranking league employee, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he didn’t want to comment on any specific incident, said players are warned every year that such gestures will result in penalties and fines. The league shows a video to players each year instructing them on acceptable and unacceptable forms of celebration. The NFL rulebook, which is given every year to each player, also prohibits any gun-related salutes.
One league official said as such celebrations became popular in high school and college games, the NFL observed a trickle-up effect into its own games.
Among the violent gestures flagged in college football this season: Last week, South Carolina defensive end Dylan Stewart mimicked shooting a machine gun into Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart while the quarterback was still on the ground recovering from Stewart’s sack. In Week 1, on LSU’s first touchdown of the season, wide receiver Kyren Lacy pretended to shoot a gun at USC’s defense.
“We’re starting to see, I hate to say it, but more and more of it,” Steve Shaw, the NCAA’s national coordinator of officials, told The Associated Press earlier this week. “We’re just trying to say that’s not acceptable. Gun violence is not acceptable in our game.”
Multiple NFL staff members keep a pulse on all aspects of the youth game, and the league remains conscientious about its messaging to a younger audience. Because of its players’ celebrity statuses, the NFL is mindful about curbing in-game violent gestures, and hopes the recent penalties and fines quickly force players to make a change.
As a second high-ranking NFL employee said when asked about the matter: “Non-negotiable. Find a different expression to celebrate.”

How Tom Brady could buy into the Raiders and why he wants a piece of the NFL pie
Tom Brady, a surefire future Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee and arguably the greatest player in NFL history, could be on the precipice of NFL ownership.
Brady and businessman Tom Wagner, the co-founder of Knighthead Capital Management, came to an agreement with Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis to buy into the franchise last year. Their bid will be discussed at the NFL’s owners’ meetings on Tuesday in Atlanta, according to a league source. The league’s financial committee will review Brady’s bid, with a potential vote to follow.
GO DEEPER
Tom Brady’s ownership bid for Raiders to be discussed at owners meeting next week
Here’s an explainer of how Brady and the Raiders got here:
What is the process for Brady becoming a part-owner of the Raiders?
Brady and Wagner had to reach an agreement with Davis to purchase a minority stake in the franchise, which they did in May 2023. From there, the bid is reviewed by the NFL’s finance committee, which was formed last year and is composed of owners. The committee decides if the bid will proceed to a vote. If it does, the bid must be approved by 24 of the NFL’s 32 majority owners.
What would his ownership share be, and how much is he paying for it?
According to league sources, the agreement between Brady, Wagner and Davis is for a 10 percent stake in the Raiders. CNBC estimated the value of the Raiders to be $7.8 billion last month, but that doesn’t mean Brady and Wagner have to pay $780 million.
That’s because a valuation is based on the estimated price the Raiders would draw if Davis sold the entire stake. The price Brady and Wagner agreed on with Davis has not been disclosed, but it’ll likely be substantially less than 10 percent of the valuation of the Raiders.
How does one pay for, say, a 10 percent share of an NFL team? Does he have to come up with cash, or is it a payout over a longer period?
Brady and Wagner have to pay cash. If they don’t have the full amount on hand, they’ll have to take out a loan.
Why has the process taken so long?
It has taken some time to nail down the final price. According to The Washington Post, the NFL’s finance committee raised concerns last year that Davis was giving Brady and Wagner too much of a discount. The Post reported earlier this month that Brady and Wagner have since increased their offer to “far more money than originally proposed.”

What would be different for Brady given his TV broadcasting career?
The NFL has already placed restrictions on Brady in his role as a Fox analyst. He’s not allowed access to other teams’ facilities and practices, nor can he attend broadcast production meetings, which usually include meetings with coaches and players ahead of games.
In the scenario that he’s approved as a minority owner, however, the restrictions would increase. According to an ESPN report in August, Brady wouldn’t be able to publicly criticize officials or other teams and could be fined or suspended if the league feels he breaks that policy. He would also have to abide by the league’s gambling and anti-tampering policies, and he would be limited to “strictly social communication” with members of other teams, per the report.
What is Brady’s connection to Raiders owner Mark Davis?
In January 2020, Brady attended UFC 246 and was photographed smiling while talking to Davis, whom he’d previously met, and then-Raiders executive Marcel Reece. The Raiders were moving to Las Vegas, while Brady was coming off what would be his final season with the New England Patriots. With Brady set to become an unrestricted free agent that March, rumors were swirling that he could potentially sign with the Raiders to replace then-starting quarterback Derek Carr.
The Raiders considered pursuing Brady, but then-coach Jon Gruden, who had personnel power, ultimately decided against it and stuck with Carr. Brady went on to sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but the Raiders’ flirtation was the start of a deeper relationship with Davis, who took over as head of the franchise following the death of his father, Al, in 2011.
In May 2022, Brady attended a Las Vegas Aces game. He caught up with Davis, who purchased the WNBA franchise in 2021, and expressed his admiration for what they were building. On the court, the team was thriving and en route to its first WNBA championship. From a fan base perspective, the Aces were regularly selling out games and drawing some of the best attendance numbers in the league.
“I think (Brady) was just really impressed with how far women’s basketball has come,” Davis told The Athletic last year. “And he was also impressed by the excitement and the enthusiasm of the crowd in Las Vegas.”
Shortly after the game, Brady’s representatives reached out to Davis and asked whether he would be willing to sell a minority stake in the Aces. In March 2023, the Aces announced that Brady had reached an agreement with Davis to become a minority owner. The purchase was approved by the WNBA’s other owners in October. The percentage of Brady’s stake and the amount he paid for it remain undisclosed.
“He knew that I was in it, and I think he just felt he wanted to be a part of it,” Davis said. “His people contacted me and we talked about it, and he became a partner.”
In May 2023, Davis told ESPN he had come to an agreement with Brady for the former quarterback to purchase a minority ownership stake in the Raiders.
“We’re excited for Tom to join the Raiders,” Davis told ESPN, “and it’s exciting because he will be just the third player in the history of the National Football League (after George Halas Sr. and Jerry Richardson) to become an owner.”
Why is Brady trying to purchase a share of the Raiders — and not the Patriots, Buccaneers or his hometown San Francisco 49ers?
It all starts with the existing business relationship between Brady and Davis. You can’t buy a stake in a team without an owner being willing to sell a portion of his or her stake and it’s unclear if that would’ve been possible with the Patriots, Buccaneers or 49ers. The Patriots, for one, are 100 percent owned by Robert Kraft and he told Fox Business in February 2023, “I’m never selling it. We’ve set it up so it hopefully stays in the family for many decades to come.”
It’s also possible Brady viewed the Raiders as a more attractive investment. Among the four aforementioned teams, only the Patriots — valued at $7.9 billion — are worth more than the Raiders, per CNBC’s estimation. Their report has the 49ers at $7.4 billion and the Bucs at $6.05 billion.
The report also suggests that the Raiders are generating more revenue than those three other teams. According to CNBC, the Raiders generated $780 million in revenue in the past year, which trails only the Dallas Cowboys ($1.22 billion) and Los Angeles Rams ($825 million). That, plus Davis being willing to sell, is likely part of the reason this came together.

Does this mean Brady would have any sort of control of the Raiders?
No. To be considered a majority owner by the NFL, someone who buys into the franchise must acquire at least a 30 percent stake. At that point, they could have voting rights and team control. Because Brady and Wagner are purchasing only 10 percent of the Raiders, they won’t have control. That’s another reason why they won’t pay 10 percent of the valuation of the Raiders.
“If somebody buys what’s called a limited partnership share, they pay a much lower valuation because they don’t have any control,” a former NFL executive told The Athletic last month. “They’re basically just passive investors. It’d be like if you were selling the garage of your house. You wouldn’t sell it on a per-square-foot basis. Somebody would pay a lot less because they don’t own the house.”
How many other minority owners do the Raiders have?
Davis and his mother, Carol Davis, are listed as co-owners of the Raiders and own 47 percent of the franchise. That number would drop if Brady and Wagner’s bid is approved, but the Davis family would remain the principal owners. As of 2022, the NFL dropped the minimum percentage of a team that a longstanding owner must control from 5 percent to 1 percent for teams with the same owner for at least 10 years.
When the late Al Davis became principal owner in 1972, he founded a company called A.D. Football Inc. alongside eight partners. The original eight partners have passed, but their heirs became limited partners.
The Raiders 2024 media guide lists six other “interest holders” in the franchise: A. Boscacci, Jill Boscacci Lovingfoss, First Football, Winkenbach Family, Fox Football and Sargent Family.
Could Brady still return to play in the NFL as a part-owner?
No. NFL rules state that employees can’t own equity in a team unless they are family members of the team’s owner.

Tom Brady says he’s ‘not opposed’ to returning to NFL
What is the Raiders’ succession plan after Mark Davis? Could Brady eventually become the primary owner?
It’s unknown. Mark Davis, 69, has no siblings and is single with no children. Carol Davis is in her 90s. If they still have stakes in the franchise when they die, their ownership stakes could either be passed on to someone else in the family or sold.
Brady could attempt to purchase their stakes in the latter scenario. He could also attempt to purchase their stakes while they’re living — or those of the other limited partners. Not only would he need to cross the 30 percent threshold, but he’d also need to own more shares than Carol and Mark Davis to become the “controlling” owner. If Carol and Mark Davis ever decided to sell, there would likely be suitors beyond Brady.
“It’ll be a real ‘Game of Thrones’ when that happens,” a former NFL executive told The Athletic. “When something’s worth $1,000, there’s not a fight. When something’s worth $10 billion, it gets pretty ugly.”

How Sabrina Ionescu went from ‘dark days’ of injury to the brink of a WNBA championship
Follow live coverage of Lynx vs. Liberty in Game 1 of the WNBA Finals today
NEW YORK — Sabrina Ionescu could barely walk during last season’s WNBA Finals. The New York Liberty star needed an injection into her aching hip to even take the floor in the early games of the series against the Las Vegas Aces. She struggled to score, and as the Aces were en route to clinching the championship in a one-point victory on the Liberty’s home court last October, Ionescu threw up into a sideline trash can.
The Liberty and Aces were billed as the WNBA’s super-teams last year because of their star power, including Ionescu. But Vegas made a statement and left a lasting scar for Ionescu.
“Losing,” she said, “motivates you.”
The Liberty had room for growth, and Ionescu recognized that included her. Before traveling home to California last fall, she met with New York’s coaching staff. They discussed in detail how she could improve. While she was good with the ball in her hand, they told her she was too easily defended off-ball. They stressed identifying and taking advantage of pick-and-roll situations. They wanted Ionescu to become a better cutter, play with different speeds and attack the basket more.
Once healthy, she got to work with no physical limitations or, apparently, without a ceiling on how hard she’d push herself.
“It’s just about wanting to be better all the time and not really being OK with being complacent,” Ionescu said.
She was in the gym constantly. She worked on her handle and quickness. She added various floaters to her game. She focused on pulling up out of different dribble variations and utilizing her strength. She played five-on-five against current and former Pac-12 players, WNBA players and overseas pros. “Nothing compares to defense and live reps,” she said.
That wasn’t even enough. Ionescu devised challenges to make difficult drills even tougher. Her trainer recalled a catch-and-shoot sequence in which Ionescu was tasked to make 20 deep 3-pointers, requiring the last five be consecutive. Ionescu added that each needed to be all net. After making 13 in a row, she called out that a few had barely grazed the rim. “No absolutely, not. These don’t count,” she said. She started the sequence again.
“Being able to go full blast was a whole different story,” said Breen Weeks, her basketball skills trainer the last two offseasons.
Another time, Ionescu made herself hit five one-dribble, same-handed, same-footed floaters, but she required the last three be banked in off the glass without using her right hand as a guide. “If she didn’t like the height on it, (it) doesn’t count,” Weeks said. “That’s how obsessive she is. That’s how locked in and detailed she is. I call her a cold-blooded competitor.”
Said Ionescu: “I know I can make a shot, but I want to continue to challenge myself to chase perfection. Sometimes that’s with a swish, sometimes that’s with a challenging move.”
Sabrina Ionescu turned up the heat in Game 4 🔥
With 22 points and 5-of-8 from beyond the arc, she lit up the court and energized the Liberty for the WIN #WelcometotheW pic.twitter.com/1zcSvivVlm
— WNBA (@WNBA) October 6, 2024
Taking difficult moments head on has been a theme through the early stages of Ionescu’s career, which has been marked with accomplishments but also injuries and shortcomings. But her competitive obsessiveness this offseason has elevated her game to new heights. She gets downhill more and is now New York’s primary ballhandler, averaging a career-high 18.2 points and 6.2 assists per game, and playing more minutes than ever.
It culminated in guiding the Liberty back to the WNBA Finals and to the doorstep of a franchise peak. Following its loss last season, New York — one of the WNBA’s original teams — is in position to win its first championship, taking on the Minnesota Lynx in Game 1 on Thursday.
“It’s been really rewarding to see my true self come out,” Ionescu said.
Those who know Ionescu best aren’t surprised that she lived in a gym all winter and spring. As a high school sophomore on the way to becoming one of the nation’s top recruits in Orinda, Calif., her coach gave her a key to the school’s gym. She practiced there late into the night so often that the school principal informed Miramonte High School’s janitorial staff to “just leave her alone and let her shoot,” her coach Kelly Sopak said.
When coach Kelly Graves recruited Ionescu to Oregon, he told her the university’s practice facility was open 24/7 for players, but she quickly learned that wasn’t necessarily true. Ionescu was booted out of the facility on her first night on campus by a security guard, the first of many times throughout her college career. “She was the only player that I’ve ever had that’s been kicked out of the practice facility,” Graves said.
That work ethic was vital as Ionescu’s celebrated entry to the WNBA was quickly marred by injuries. Ionescu was the No. 1 pick in the 2020 WNBA Draft, but she suffered a severe ankle sprain in her third WNBA game and she missed the remainder of her rookie season. Ankle pain lingered throughout the 2021 season, and it wasn’t until the 2022 campaign she said she was fully healed. Still, thoughts of injuries remained with her, later recalling those plagued stretches her “dark days.” Finishing an entire season healthy was a goal, in the same way as winning a championship.
“She just competes against herself,” Liberty general manager Jonathan Kolb said.
When the Liberty reconvened in the spring, assistant coach Olaf Lange said he quickly noticed “the flashes were there in training camp.” Liberty head coach Sandy Brondello took note of Ionescu’s improved explosiveness.
By her 14th game, Ionescu had made more floaters than she did in all of 2023. Heading into the finals, 37.2 percent of her shot attempts had been runners or at the rim, up from 26.3 percent last year, according to Synergy Sports. “When she’s aggressive like that it kind of opens things up for everyone else,” Liberty teammate Breanna Stewart said.
Stewart and Jonquel Jones are New York’s lone players with MVP awards on their resumés, but Ionescu is arguably the franchise’s motor. Aces coach Becky Hammon said the 5-foot-11 guard is “what makes (New York) go with her pace, her ability to read, her ability to put defenses in different dilemmas.” Hammon called her the Liberty’s “head of the snake.”
“I love her shooting, everything that she brings to the game. Even just her finishing around the rim, I think has been a bit better,” Hammon said. “It’s tough when you take really, really good players, and they get better.”
It’s why Las Vegas sought to specifically shut her down in Game 3 (Ionescu’s four points were her second-lowest of the season). Stop Ionescu, the Aces believed, and they could get back into the semifinals. Then Game 4 happened. Ionescu scored 12 first-quarter points en route to an eventual team-high 22 to close the door on the Aces’ comeback attempt.
Stopping Ionescu consistently this season has proved challenging, not just statistically, but because of the new confidence she is playing with. “Sometimes early in her career, I thought when she feels the crowd, she just wants to make a play and force the issue,” Lange said. “As of late, she lets it come to her.”
As Sopak watches Ionescu throughout New York’s postseason run, he has had constant flashbacks. He recalled a middle school contest when she hit a late runner off the glass that reminded him very much of a late-game shot over A’ja Wilson in New York’s Game 2 win over the Aces. With the Liberty leading by only one point with 11.6 seconds left, Ionescu approached the free-throw line looking to close out the win. She missed the first free throw, however, and from his home in California, Sopak said, “St. Mary’s–Stockton.”
The meaning dates back to Ionescu’s freshman year of high school, when Ionescu was fouled and went to the line for a one-and-one against what Sopak said was a top-10 program. She missed the front-end, and Miramonte lost by a point. The loss motivated Ionescu to avoid being in that position again.
“You can’t sugar coat it with Sabrina,” Sopak said. He said he told her after that game: “If you’re to be a great player, you’re going to have to be prepared for failure. If you’re not willing to lose that game and take the consequences of it, then you’re never going to win it.”
Ionescu doesn’t shy away from key moments. It’s why Sopak had no doubt she would make the second free throw. She embraces trying to win games, not just avoiding losing them. “She’s not proving anything anymore,” Sopak said.
Over the last three weeks, Ionescu has dapped up Spike Lee, fallen into Carmelo Anthony’s lap and sung with Alicia Keys. She fist-pumped after making 3-pointers, waved her hands to amp up Barclays Center crowds and iced playoff wins at the free-throw line.
Amid all the fanfare and the victories, Ionescu’s drive has been evident. After she tied New York’s franchise playoff-record with 36 points to close out its first-round series with the Atlanta Dream, she sat in a corner of the Liberty locker room and took a rare breath.
“Good f— job,” Ionescu said to her teammates as she fixed her headband. “This game wasn’t perfect, but we played hard. We played hard for 40 minutes and we just chipped away.”
Sabrina Ionescu: “Spike Lee gave me a high five … and I felt like New York was just injected into my veins at that moment. I was like, ‘We’re winning this.’” 😂pic.twitter.com/bnevwhIz0Z
— Dime (@DimeUPROXX) September 25, 2024
Healthy, focused and confident, Ionescu said she’s felt more comfortable with being vocal and showing who she is. “People have been able to see a little bit more of my personality this year, who I am as a person,” she said. “Because I’ve just felt more confident in myself.”
She is in the ear of coaches about what she can do to score and how she wants to help her teammates succeed. At a recent practice, she urged the staff to continue repping out-of-bounds plays instead of taking a water break. Every minute, and every drill, matters.
Winning a ring is paramount, she said. She said she’s thought about what it would feel like to be victorious, and what it would mean for her teammates, for a Liberty franchise that has lost its five prior trips to the finals, and for New York City, which hasn’t won a basketball title since the 1970s.
“I’ve been thinking about a championship since we lost last year,” Ionescu said.
