<p><span> On June 4, 2020, Austin's City Council approved the funding for the </span><i><span>Black Artists Matter Street Mural</span></i><span> [3]. Twelve days later, on June 16, local artists in East Austin began work on the </span><i><span>Black Artists Matter Street Mural</span></i><span>, and they finished two days later, on June 18 [4]. Specifically, the local artists who painted the mural are members of Austin Justice Coalition, and Capitol View Arts, and the two organizations collaborated to make the mural possible [2, 4].</span><span> </span></p>
<p><span> Austin is home to many suburbs, and neighborhoods [2, 3, 4]. Within Austin, the local artists selected East 11th Street in East Austin as the location for the </span><i><span>Black Artists Matter Street Mural </span></i><span>[3]. The reason why 11th Street in East Austin being home to the </span><i><span>Black Artists Matter Street Mural </span></i><span>is significant is because historically, it is the heart of East Austin's African-American community [2, 3, 4]. Most of the artists who painted the </span><i><span>Black Artists Matter Street Mural</span></i><span> are BIPOC, but artists, as well as members of Austin Justice Coalition, and Capitol View Arts who are of all backgrounds, helped with the mural too [2, 3, 4].</span><span> </span></p>
<p><span> The </span><i><span>Black Artists Matter Street Mural</span></i><span> is still on display, on the original spot; 11th Street in East Austin, which is an important sign of solidarity [3]. In summary, Clifford Gillard, who founded and is the president of Capitol View Arts was interviewed about the </span><i><span>Black Artists Matter Street Mural </span></i><span>[3]. Gillard said: “In a city where the black population is overlooked, our purpose through this mural is to show continued support and acknowledgment of black artists and their contribution to Austin’s legacy and character.” [3]. </span><span> </span></p>
