<p><span>The "All Black Trans Queer Nonbinary Street Mural" was created in Oakland, California in June 2020. It is located on Lakeside Park Road outside of the Gardens of Lake Merritt. It is the Bay Area's longest street mural and has been seen around the world. The mural was organized by the East Bay Queer Arts Center. The mural was produced by local artists and activists including Kin Folz, the founder of the East Bay Queer Arts Center. In June of 2020, more than 300 volunteers participated in its creation. Oakland native, Tory Teasley, explained "This is our live-out-loud creative experience, it's something that marks the stamp on what this city is truly about. It represents its communities, the diversity of people here." In September 2021, just over a year after the mural was created, a "Pride Mural Paint Party" was organized in order to help return the mural to its original state after it started to fade. The "Paint Party" took place during Oakland's Pride Month. <br /><br />The party also focused on the significance of the people, occurrences, and spaces that have played an important role in LGBTQIA+ diversity, such as the Oakland Pride Parade and Festival, which had been canceled that year because of COVID-19. As well as recognizing the value of the people fighting for equality, equity, and justice, the party also focused on remembering the importance of the cultural history not only in Lake Merritt but all around the city. They highlighted marginalized communities and the ongoing challenges that individuals within those communities face on a daily basis. These difficulties are the reason why the mural still remains relevant today. David Xone Johnson, an ambassador of the Queer Arts Center said, "I'll be transparent: It's still extremely challenging. So we're coming together to acknowledge that and just take everything that we're dealing with collectively into one statement to say that we are here and matter." Beyond bringing attention to the LGBTQIA+ community as a whole, the mural also focuses on the many incarcerated people who are LGBTQIA+. Janetta Johnson, an executive director of the TGI (Transgender, Gender Variant, Intersex) Project, spoke of the need for incarcerated transgender individuals to have a community and resources (including housing opportunities) available to them once they are released from prison. "We are dedicating our lives to the people who have been silenced. We are working to make your voices heard." </span><span> <br /><br />Sources</span></p>

<p>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. <br /><br />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. <br /><br />Additional information: <br /><br />Library of Congress blog post <a href="https://blogs.loc.gov/loc/2022/01/protest-preserved-signs-from-d-c-s-black-lives-matter-fence/">"Protest Preserved: Signs from D.C.'s Black Lives Matter Memorial Fence" </a><br /><br />D.C.

There is a poster which reads “Stop Erdogan” and has a portrait of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, with a red circle with a line through it over his face. Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is the president of Turkey.
There is a black poster that reads “Solidarity” and above it is a hanging poster that reads “£RECOGNIZEARTSAKH” and it has an image of a statue head on it.
There are multiple posters that reads “America BE Better” “We Can Do Better” “Join Armenia in War Against Turkish Terror” “If You’re Not Outraged Ur [sic] Not Paying Attention.”
There’s a poster that is half white and half black that is split diagonally. On the white side of the poster it reads “I hope The White People don’t notice I’m BLACK” and the black side of the poster reads “I hope The Black People don’t notice I’m TRANS.” And the word ‘trans’ is in the colors of the transgender flag which are blue, pink, and white.
Other posters read “Black Lives Matter” which has many police brutality victim names lining the poster. “WHITE silence FUELS DOMESTIC TERRORISM” is next to this poster and there is another one that is behind the fence, and it reads “your [sic] SILENCE is KILLING” and has the Armenian flag drawn on it as well. Another poster reads “Combat Medics. Black Lives Mattered…in the Vietnam War” and there is a black and white poster of Black Combat Medics from the Vietnam War.

There is an image of a fence that only has two posters on it and it reads ‘Democracy is Stronger Than Trump” and "Trump Hates Democracy” but there are zip ties on the fence that show there were other posters or items attached to the fence previously.

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. <br /><br />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. <br /><br />Additional information: <br /><br /><p>Library of Congress blog post <a href="https://blogs.loc.gov/loc/2022/01/protest-preserved-signs-from-d-c-s-black-lives-matter-fence/">"Protest Preserved: Signs from D.C.'s Black Lives Matter Memorial Fence" </a><br /><br />D.C.
