A promoter in Seattle was caught RED-HANDED covering a Black Lives Matter mural of Rahwa Habte with concert posters. Local community member (and our guest for today), Omari Salisbury, confronted him in a video that’s since gone viral. 

 

Our host, Angela Rye, will talk to Omari about the confrontation, and why seeing Rahwa’s mural covered struck such a nerve, as part of the larger gentrification happening in his neighborhood.
