New Anti-Hate Mural Revealed Honoring the Black Community

LOS ANGELES LA vs Hate, the county’s anti-hate program, joined LA County Supervisor Holly Mitchell to kick off United Against Hate Week by unveiling a new mural that celebrates LA County’s Black community at a special event at Willowbrook Senior Center. The mural, It’s All For You, by Brittney Price, is the fifth and final mural of LA vs Hate’s Summer of Solidarity, a public art series that celebrates the diverse communities of Los Angeles. Launched by the LA County Commission on Human Relations in 2019, LA vs Hate encourages all residents of Los Angeles County to unite against and report hate, as well as to support those of us who may have been victims of hate-motivated acts. Returning for its fourth annual campaign, LA vs Hate’s United Against Hate Week or UAHW is part of a statewide call for local civic action to put a stop to the spread of hate and discrimination, which remains a threat to school campuses, neighborhoods, towns and cities.

This LA vs Hate mural was created in partnership with Willowbrook Inclusion Network, Brotherhood Crusade and LA Commons, as well as the office of LA County Supervisor Holly Mitchell. Each of LA vs Hate’s five solidarity murals unveiled across LA County conveys inclusion, pride and history of groups experiencing high levels of hate and discrimination, and promotes cross-cultural and interracial solidarity, utilizing the power of art as part of its strategy to unite diverse communities against hate.

“This mural welcomes the neighborhood with open arms to the gateway of South Los Angeles by connecting the history and future of Willowbrook’s ecology and community,” said muralist Brittney Price.  “Historical figures from Willowbrook and more broadly LA County’s black community are depicted within a tableau of natural, musical, spiritual and architectural elements that pay homage to this neighborhood’s rich culture from the past to the present.”
