The US secretary of State is represented as a great diplomat, an intellectual giant and the embodiment of the American dream. Meanwhile, she has spoken out against affirmative action, lied to the 9/11 Commission, defended a disastrous war in Iraq and been the mouthpiece for an administration in its most shameful moments. Here is a compendium of think pieces, visuak art and imaginative works inspired by Dr Condoleeza Rice, including works from Amiri Baraka, Kate Bornstein, Sue Coe, Wanda Coleman, Sapphire.
