New York Instances: “The mural, spelling ‘BLACK LIVES MATTER’ in brilliant yellow letters, coated two blocks of sixteenth Avenue NW. It was painted in June 2020, turning the pavement right into a pedestrian zone known as Black Lives Matter Plaza.”
“However its destiny has been in query since President Trump returned to the White Home in January, and final week the mayor, Muriel Bowser, stated that the mural can be eliminated. Her announcement got here shortly after Consultant Andrew Clyde, a Republican from Georgia, launched laws threatening to withhold thousands and thousands in federal funds from town until the mural was eliminated and the plaza renamed.”
