About this mural:
This was the first painting in a 4 part mural series titled the I AM Series. The entire project was spearheaded, organized and lead by artist Darius Dennis. This particular painting is a photo real oil enamel reproduction of Bob Adleman's capture of the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's Memorial following the Memphis Sanitation Strike. This mural overlooks the Chicago Transit Authorities Blue-Line Station and is a think piece on history telling, education materials, community, resilience and the struggle to be treated as a fragile human during the protests that followed George Floyd and Breonna Taylor deaths.
