WORCESTER, MA — Worcester is the latest city to get a Black Lives Matter mural painted on the street. The project started at 6 a.m. Wednesday at the corner of Major Taylor Boulevard and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard by the DCU Center.

The murals have emerged in places like Washington, D.C., in front of Trump Tower in New York and in Roxbury’s Nubian Square in the wake of George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis police officers.
