An object that caught my attention were these little gold cuffs I found inside a display case. They caught my attention right away because the fist they make resembles the Black Lives Matter logo as well as representing unity, solidarity, and a fight against oppression. Gold is also a symbol of wealth, and the exhibit as a whole serves to pay tribute to African American culture and the role it has played in shaping modern day fashion. Overall, I thought the object was pretty cool and would pair well with many of the suits featured in the exhibit.
