.@dezcustomz talking about mural panels on boards - there are some projects around the country storing and archiving them, including @STB2MTM in Minneapolis. These boards are part of history and need to be preserved! #RawHope

Back at it today with @STB2MTM digitally archiving newly arrived boards. If you have physical boards dm them. If you have images of any street art - from tags to stickers to murals - send them to us or upload them yourself at our database site. #StreetArt #graffiti #antiracist

Today is the day that we remember what 5/25/20 and 8mins and 46 seconds mean, and demand the world remember the murder of George Floyd. Today is the day we the people demand justice for George and for all the lives of BIPOC people stolen by cops. 🖤❤️

The world watched #Minnesota after the triple lynching in 1920, though no one was ever charged for the murders of Elias Clayton, Elmer Jackson or Isaac McGhie.
100 years later the world watches again, will MN reach a different verdict for #GeorgeFloyd?

This work that we’re doing is incredible, but it’s so hard and we are working with no funding or resources. Please help us continue this work by donating to our gofundme. #STB2MTM
