“A masterpiece was created in the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone today” video by Kyle Kotajarvi

This wasn’t a government stunt to try and avoid doing something meaningful, but a coming together of community artists who did it for free. Which is why it’s the best.

And it’s not even finished in that shot!

It really is stunning art. I hope they keep this block closed to vehicles for a long time.

I love how the right wing is all “It’s Anarchy! It’s terrorism! They’re burning everything down! They must be stopped! Send in the military!”

Meanwhile the moment people are allowed to do what they want, the first things they do are…

Make art and plant a garden.

[ID: 1) An overhead video of Black Lives Matter painted down the middle of a public street in Seattle in large letters. Every letter is a separate brightly colored piece of colored art. 2) A Tweet by James Saint-Franc @sirjamesa12 “Every single letter was designed by black artists from the Seattle area.” 3) A still shot of the same street art completed. It is even more brightly colored.]

Here’s the one they did in my city. All done by black artists

Brianna Noble, 25, from Oakland, rode a horse down Broadway with a cardboard sign that read, “Black Lives Matter.”

“We’re just bringing some attention to the issue at hand in a positive, non-violent way,” Noble said. “Horses bring attention.”

Protect her at all cost

Also the police would never attack a horse rather than a black person so that was also a safe strategy
