User:Bflx 11/Breonna Taylor

In December 2020, Oakland based artist Leo Carson installed a ceramic sculpture of Breonna Taylor at Latham Square in Downtown Oakland. Within two weeks of its installment, the sculpture was smashed into pieces, and subsequently went missing. Carson crowdfunded for two years to raise the funds to recreate a new, larger and more durable sculpture.
