Mario Gonzalez was senselessly killed by police officers just blocks from our home. We have a responsibility to our community and to his family to do better. This poster has a list of resources printed on the back: numbers to call (besides the police) for resources and help during a variety of situations. Please contact me if you want one or more of these posters (free).

How can art support of social justice?

A donation to ACLU = this beautiful print sent to you (or your loved one)! Prints are available for immediate shipping on a sliding scale starting at $35 and up.

This print is a reproduction of our 2020 mural depicting Gianna Floyd and her powerful quote “Daddy Changed the World”. The final breath of her beloved father, George, was taken by police officers on May 25, 2020, sparking a tangible surge of awokening across the U.S. The image surrounds Gianna with symbols of protection, and embraces her with the innocence every child deserves.

Donations go directly to the ACLU (America Civil Liberties Union), who have been defending social justice in America for 100 years. (Learn more aclu.org).
