My Favorite pic from visit to Tacoma Murals Projec $My Favorite pic from visit to Tacoma Murals Project... Artist: Saiyare Rafael @_saikick_ @justseeds (sadly it tells the story about mistreatment of immigrants and Native Americans... read more below) Visited Tacoma, WA today.

There is a public art tour map which will help you do you own self-guided tour. Additional Explanation.... The entirety of America is built on genocide of Native Americans and stolen native land.
