Description
An account of the resource
On a foundation of light blue and pink paint, layers upon layers of vivid colors emerge. Black, blue, yellow, and pink crosses layer over red and green circles and dark yellow Xs to build a bold foundation for the focal point of the image to stand out. 13 bold white crosses are the top layer of the piece, each reading the name of a Black person murdered by the police and their age at their death.
The crosses read, from left to right, as follows:
George Floyd, 46
Breonna Taylor, 26
Eric Garner, 43
Trayvon Martin, 17
Riah Milton, 25
Michael Brown, 28 (correct age is 18)
Sandra Bland, 28
Elijah McClain, 23
Tamir Rice, 12
Philando Castile, 32
Freddie Gray, 25
Oscar Grant III, 22
Emmett Till, 14
In the upper leftmost corner of the work, in pink lettering almost indiscernible against the layers of paint that make up the background, the fully capitalized text reads: "May their memories be a blessing."

The Black Lives Matter Memorial fence was a temporary chainlink fence installed in the area north of Lafayette Park and the White House from June 2, 2020, until January 30, 2021. The fence prevented public access to the area, and it also served as an important site of protest and self-expression.
Activist Nadine Seiler played a crucial role in protecting and caring for the fence, along with Karen Irwin and other activists in a loosely-formed group informally known as the "Guardians of the Fence." Nadine Seiler and Aliza Leventhal systematically documented the fence over the course of months, and Seiler became the de facto curator of the fence.

An account of the resource
Protest signs and posters on the Black Lives Matter Memorial Fence, located on the north side of Lafayette Park in Washington D.C.
Within the fence, there are pieces of tied fabric or paper and it reads “We Keep Us Safe” Each word is a different color and it is in pink, orange, green, and white respectively.
Multiple posters reads “End Police Brutality” “Black Lives Matter” “If Your Religious Beliefs Oppose Same Sex Marriage, Don’t Get Married To Someone Of The Same Sex” “1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Fuck 12” “RUTHless and Determined” Rest In Power Ruth Bader Ginsburg” “Fund the Communities” “Black Mental Health Matters” “Facts: Hospitalizations Up Deaths Up Global Pandemic” “AmeriKKKa”
There’s a poster that reads “’I can’t breathe. I have my ID [illegible] My name is Elijah McClain. That’s my house. I was just going home. I’m an introvert. I’m just different. That’s all. I’m so sorry. I have [illegible] fun. I don’t do that stuff. I don’t do any fighting. Why are you attacking me? I don’t even kill flies! I don’t eat meat. I don’t judge people, I don’t judge people who do eat meat. Forgive me. All I was trying to do was become better. I will do it. I will [illegible] anything. Sacrifice my identity, I’ll do it. You all are phenomenal. You are beautiful and I love you. Try to forgive me. I’m a mood Gemini. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. Ow, that really hurt. You all are very strong. Teamwork makes the dream work. Oh, I’m sorry I wasn’t trying to do that. I just can’t breathe correctly.’ – The last words of Elijah McClain murdered on August 24, 2019 by [illegible] Aurora, Colorado Police Department. [illegible] 3 officers involved are still active [illegible] officers today. No charges were [illegible]”
On the road there is yellow spray paint that reads “Trump Lives Matter” and on a different section of the fence reads “FUCK 12” in orange duct tape. There’s a poster that reads “Justice 4 DeonKay” and another with the names of victims of police brutality which reads “Karon Hylton DeonKay Dquan Young Marqueese Alston Jeffrey Price Eric Carter Isabelle Duval Marquesha McMillan Sherman Evans Devonne Harris Peter John Terrence Sterling Bobby Gross Gerald Hall We Remember” and then a campaign poster of Joe Biden that has an image of his face in front of an American flag that reads “Justice”.
There are images of those who were victims to police brutality and they read “Andre Murphy St. Jan 7, 2015 [;] Rest in Power” “Darren N Hunt Sept 10, 2014 [;] Rest in Power” and “Alexa Christian April 20, 2015”.
Another poster underneath makes “Trump” into an acronym and it reads “Terrifying Racist Unrepentant Malicious PIG” and “Dump Trump”.

The Black Lives Matter Memorial fence was a temporary chainlink fence installed in the area north of Lafayette Park and the White House from June 2, 2020, until January 30, 2021. The fence prevented public access to the area, and it also served as an important site of protest and self-expression.
Activist Nadine Seiler played a crucial role in protecting and caring for the fence, along with Karen Irwin and other activists in a loosely-formed group informally known as the "Guardians of the Fence." Nadine Seiler and Aliza Leventhal systematically documented the fence over the course of months, and Seiler became the de facto curator of the fence.

There is writing on the poster that reads “I Hope Youre [sic] Proud Of Us Mr. Lewis RIP ”
There is a cloth sheet that reads “There’s a poster that reads “’I can’t breathe. I have my ID [illegible] My name is Elijah McClain. That’s my house. I was just going home. I’m an introvert. I’M JUST DIFFERENT. That’s all. I’M SO SORRY. I have [illegible] fun. I don’t do that stuff. I don’t do any fighting. Why are you attacking me? I don’t even kill flies! I don’t eat meat.

Another poster reads “Vote Out Trump the liar the racist the transphobic the homophobic the useless the hateful the ableist the white supremacist the rapist” behind this is another poster that is covered up slightly but one is able to see that it is representing a protest and there are depictions of people raising their fists.
Another poster reads “Murderous Pigs Dept” and has an image of a drawn pig beside it and “MPD” is highlighted with red. Another poster reads “We Keep Us Safe” and there are two images of drawn pigs that have been crossed out.
