Los Angeles Councilman Mitch O'Farrell will introduce a motion Tuesday
calling for installation of a permanent memorial commemorating
Sunday's massive All Black Lives Matter march through Hollywood.
Although he did not specify what type of memorial he had in mind, on
Monday O'Farrell ordered that crews stop efforts to remove the
mural-like words "All Black Lives Matter'' that were painted on
Hollywood Boulevard between Highland Avenue and Orange Drive for the
march.
"We had a once-in-a-generation moment this weekend in Hollywood
as tens of thousands gathered for a peaceful demonstration on one of the
most recognizable boulevards in America,'' O'Farrell said. "We now have
a chance to memorialize the movement in a meaningful way. I look
forward to working with the Black LGBTQIA Action Committee and other
community members on this project.''

I visited Hollywood once. It was a shithole. I shall not return!
