Story: Two weeks after the death of George Floyd, protests continued in Charlotte and all over the world.

Modeled after the yellow Black Lives Matter mural in Washington, DC that seemingly sprang up overnight, artists gathered on the morning of Tuesday, June 9 and painted through the day to complete Charlotte’s Black Lives Matter mural.
