The mural titled Diaspora, painted by teenagers and local artist Alana Landrum, symbolizes neighborhood unity and embraces the diversity among residents of Oakland hills.
Inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, the mural project was born from community conversations about race and justice, aiming to raise awareness about police conduct.
Don Margolis emphasized that the mural not only beautifies the area but also acts as a statement of acceptance for individuals of all identities and backgrounds.
Residents now pause at the mural to appreciate its artistry, fostering discussions that celebrate the wealth of diversity in the neighborhood.
