A panel describing the removal of the Black Lives Matter Street painting: The text reads: "Black Lives Matter. March 2025. In Washington, D.C., under heavy Republican pressure, the Black Lives Matter street painting which has been there since the violent death of George Floyd in 2020 is being removed. The removal was ordered by Mayor Bowser after the Republican Party threatened to withhold millions of dollars in federal support. The panels show a photo of the street painting, as well as a photo of Trump holding up a signed document (an executive order, I assume). Behind the panel, out of focus, you see the 8288 white crosses of the Margraten War Cemetary - officially called the Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial, and the trees surrounding them.

Copies of the two panels honouring the black liberators in Margraten, which were removed by the Trump administration, can be seen just after being revealed. They are placed to the sides of a gravel path with a field (part of the Margraten war cemetary) to the left and some barren trees to the right. A military trumpetist playing 'Taptoe' (similar to Taps) stands between the two panels.
