Black Lives Matter Street Mural, Cambridge, MD
Black Lives Matter is painted in black, yellow, white, and red on the pavement. Each of the individual letters has a design. Some of the designs include representations of Cambridge civil rights leader Gloria Richardson, Dorchester native Harriet Tubman, and Talbot native Frederick Douglass.
The mural was organized by Shelton Hawkins, an Easton artist and art teacher in Charles County. He undertook the project management component, making sure that Moran and other volunteers had “smooth sailing.”
