Made by 2018 SLI program, this mural focuses on the dismantling of oppressive systems. It was designed and created by young men who were impacted by internalized injustice and discovering their voice and power in the community. It moves from dull, gray tones and machines draining the youth of life to the youth freeing themselves in bright orange and light blue tones. Skulls and masks can be seen in the mural, making a reference to ancestors and traditional african masks.
