Besa Gordon joined Good Day Seattle with Erin Mayovsky this morning to give updates on the Black Lives Matter mural on Seattle’s Capitol Hill after it faced malicious acts of vandalism last week. These actions, which came in the form of white paint splatters, red Xs, and blacked-out faces, came just days after artists from the Vivid Matter Collective completed their annual repainting of the mural. Besa’s words were a reminder that there is still progress to be done in fighting for the mural’s legacy and the freedom and resilience it represents.

The full updates on the mural will be featured this weekend on Back2Besa, highlighting the most recent annual repainting and the incredible artists behind it. Watch Back2Besa on FOX 13 Seattle, Saturdays at 10:30 p.m. and FOX 13+ Sundays at 10 a.m. and 8:00 p.m.
