Detroit Muralists Use Hand-Painted Murals to Create Social Change

Brooklyn Outdoor’s headquarters is located in Detroit, a city we are very proud to be from. Detroit is a cultural melting pot with the black community deep in its roots. Our city would not be what it was without the many black people who have influenced and represent the city’s culture, creatives, and entrepreneurs. Black people are the spirit of Detroit.

Muralists use hand-painted murals throughout the city to highlight the roots of the black community in Detroit, as well as to fight racial inequality. Here are some of our favorite hand-paints in the city.
