This colorful wall was found in the Glenwood neighborhood, on Glenwood Avenue between Grove and Florida Streets. It evokes a rainbow, with the rainbow colors from red to purple. While the above mural is not in rainbow order, all of the colors are present. The following symbolism is often attributed to the individual colors, especially in rainbow flags: green- nature; orange- healing; red- life; yellow- sunlight; blue- harmony; and purple/violet- spirit.
There has been so much in the national news this week. The displaying of the confederate flag in public, especially on state buildings, is being challenged. The Supreme Court upheld the Affordable Care Act. The Supreme Court declared that same-sex marriage is legal in all 50 states.
Rarely does our Nation have so much national news to parse collectively. Regardless of what you feel about each of these issues, it is fair to say that we all strive for more love and less hate in the world. It looks like one little building in Greensboro is reminding us of that fact.
Happy Saturday!
I like the colours, and very appropriate given the last few days.
