Workers in Washington, D.C., have started the process of dismantling Black Lives Matter Plaza — including the bright yellow mural that has been on 16th Street since the race riots of June 2020. D.C.

The 35-foot-tall letters cost taxpayers over $4 million to install and maintain. Congress passed the removal of the mural after Republican Rep. Andrew Clyde introduced a...
