Student artists decorate Milwaukee County bus with a mural celebrating immigrants and protesting ICE
From: https://www.facebook.com/MilwaukeeCoalitionAgainstTrump/
The Milwaukee Art Museum and Milwaukee County Transit System just unveiled a Milwaukee County bus decorated with a mural celebrating immigrants and protesting ICE.
The project, part of the Art Museum’s eXpress Milwaukee internship program, was designed and created by Milwaukee-area teenagers.
The mural, which covers the entire bus, features an ICE agent with his arms crossed in between two hands attempting to touch, another ICE agent arresting a small child, instructions on “what to do if ICE comes to your door, and the message “Milwaukee is immigrant strong.”
