Street artists in Los Angeles have already put up tributes to Nelson Mandela following his death yesterday. This was taken near KTLA, on the corner of Sunset Blvd and Van Ness Ave in Hollywood. I pass this intersection frequently and can confirm it was not up there yesterday morning.
He touched many lives and was inspirational to me as a child dealing with racism and hate crimes. Though my experiences were far milder than Mandela’s, I felt empowered and optimistic because of him. His actions and words will continue to help humanity long after even our own deaths.
