SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — On Sunday, in an act of restoration and healing, local muralists and community volunteers of Santa Cruz repainted the ‘Black Lives Matter” mural in front of city hall.
“To see the community come together here with each other that is truly the way forward to see it happening is really powerful,” said Ericka Eckert Bernau, a community volunteer repainting the mural.

In 2021, the mural was vandalized with tire marks, but today two of the individuals responsible for vandalizing the mural were at the repainting, seeking reconciliation from the community they hurt. Organizer with Santa Cruz Equity Collaboration, said both men have gone through hours of reconciliation discussions to help them understand the damage they caused. She said having them at the event today meant a step forward for the community.

So sad, Blacks really don’t care about Black Lives Matters considering how many they kill of each other daily across the country

They should have called it “We Wish We Were Back Home In Africa”. “Murals” sure have gone down hill since the old days. Are the white “STOP” paintings and “LEFT TURN ONLY” ARROWS on the roads considered “murals” by the ignorant also.

Vandalism either doesn’t matter or is the crime of the century depending on the race of those involved.

The BLM murals all over the country, sadly, mostly stand as enforced, lousy grade-school level art.
And everyone knows it.
And we must endure, endure... They are sacred.
Ah! If only these murals could have been painted by the GREATEST black artists!

Great, great, great I say...
And I will say it again and again to protect my livelihood.

All of the BLM supporters are left-wing. None of them are right wing. That includes Mitt Romney.
To: artichokegrower
Doesn’t BLM know they have set the bar for political protest, and now vandalizing and destroying property is acceptable? They’ve made the rules and now they can live by them.

All white pavement markings represent European cis-male authoritarianism and must be painted out immediately!
