Learning about the community-funded For The Culture mural (located at King Street East & Ferguson on the wall of The Salvation Army). The mural was created to support the Black Lives Matter movement and celebrate the global Black diaspora and all of the incredible culture and history of Black artists and creatives. I chat with the artists, Kayla Whitney of Koe Design, Aichoucha Haidara, and Tandeka Tremblay, who also collaborated with Empowerment Squared on this amazing project.
