Artists defend Farrakhan image in Greenburgh’s Black Lives Matter mural

A controversial image in a new Black Lives Matter mural has artists and Greenburgh town officials at odds.
The artists who painted the mural, located underneath I-287 on Manhattan Avenue in Greenburgh, are advocating to keep an image of Minister Louis Farrakhan.
Town officials want to see it removed because Farrakhan has made numerous controversial statements against Jews and the LGBTQ community.
The artists tell News 12, members of the Black community see Farrakhan as a Black leader who is a part of their history and should be remembered.
