The DC mayor had "Black Lives Matter" painted onto 16th St behind the White House this morning. Street signs are also switched out ones that say "Black Lives Matter."

Although performative, this is gonna piss off a lot of gov officials, politicians, tourists, and trumpers.

Now that I think about it, this BLM street mural is interesting in a city so heavily professionalized and "careerist." There's no many street murals, even less so ones that are obviously political.

@johnpierremaeli The street has also been renamed.

A bold move. I couldn't approve more.
