Immediately after the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, millions of people around the world filled the streets in protest. In Oakland many businesses were already boarded up because they had been closed so long due to Covid-19. After some protests turned violent in the early days, more businesses boarded up. It didn't take long for the artist to come out and full those walls with color and messages of hope and remembrance.
For another view of these images with a little more information about some of the artists, take a look at this post created with Adobe Spark.
