"...the possibility of infinite development"

from her facebook page

"This #Philadelphia #mural takes a quote by #WEBDuBois and translates it into #Arabic. (quote below)

It honors the neighborhood of Black Bottom, whose inhabitants were steadily displaced.

The mural was sponsored by @albustanseeds

"I believe that all men, black & brown & white, are brothers, varying through time & opportunity, in form & gift & feature, but differing in no essential partcular, & alike in soul & the possibility of infinite development."

- DuBois, Darkwater (1920) "
