Louis Delsarte, wonderful artist that portrayed black America, has died.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/15/arts/louis-delsarte-a-muralist-of-the-black-experience-dies-at-75.html

Read the inspiring story of Foot Locker's advertising COVERING of Delsarte's mural in Harlem and the fight by the community to remove the covering and Foot Locker's abject apology. It was disgraceful of that company to even THINK of doing that!

I hope this isn't a dupe...
