PROJECT DESCRIPTION

This mural, commissioned by Black Veterans for Social Justice, depicts African-American participation in the armed services alongside scenes of families, domestic life and the history BVSJ. The letter that float throughout the composition pay homage to the prominant role of African Americans in the military mail services, as well as the importance of letters from home to personnel on active duty.
