This is about all of us. Racism is real and
deep down we all want to heal.
Violence anywhere hurts everyone. Fear is fueled by unfamiliarity. Bias keeps us separated from ourselves and each other. Freedom is the cost of shame. No one is perfect. And we need each other to build the bigger picture.
In the longer arc set forth by caring and courageous leaders throughout history and today, we see love wins and that many small actions change everything.
In response to the murders of George Floyd, Breona Taylor, Tony McDade, Nina Pop, Ahmaud Arbery and countless names which we know and have invoked for justice, we are leveraging our power the best way we know how: Community art.
The "Stand Together" Mural is an interactive public experience that invites participants to depict their dreams in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and commit to at least one action toward making those dreams reality. For some action might look like doubling down on joy, for others action could look like divesting from racist institutions, initiating difficult conversations, or supporting Black owned businesses.
In solidarity with Black Lives Matter, people globally are creating Murals in response to this question:
What does freedom look like to you?
