22 Georgia families who have lost children to racial violence stand united in an effort to challenge police brutality and racial violence through the power of art.
These families, known as Georgia Moms United, reached out to portrait artist Maisie Thompson and community building non-profit Restore Life to immortalize their lost loved ones through a mural in downtown Atlanta and a documentary series sharing their stories.
This effort to assuage loss and incite change would become known as The Aster Project.
Though born of tragedy, The Aster Project aspires to prevent that very thing. With your support we can join hands in fulfilling The Aster Project's three-part mission:
1. Raise awareness to the need for life-saving policy changes — accessible mental health resources, prison reform, voting rights, and an end to qualified immunity
2. Spark dialogue that compels community activism and engagement.
3. Seek justice for the victims featured in The Aster Project who lost their lives at the hands of law enforcement.
