and commemorates the peaceful march of over 2,000 BUSD students in November of 2015,
addresses the ongoing struggle for racial justice that is relevant in every classroom.
Right now this is a major focus at BHS and in BUSD, and this mural will help remind
us every day for decades to come of the ability of our amazing students to lead
the way. There is a small plaque next to the mural honoring the student's leadership
in 2015-16, empowering future generations of BHS students to continue to work together
to make positive change in their community and beyond.</span></p>
