The Washington Post editorial board defended the controversial decision of the mayor of Washington DC Muriel Bowser to eliminate the giant “The lives of blacks are important“Art that covers a street in the main city near the White House.
Although many have complained about the Bowser movement, thinking that it is about leaning before the opposition of the Republicans to Black Lives Matter, the Board argued that it is intelligent, since it will placate President Trump, whose administration threatens the independence of the federal government city.
“It is not cowardice, as the mayor’s critics claim, but a practical attempt to protect DC from Republicans who threaten the autonomy of the city for political purposes.” The Board wrote on Friday.

The yellow giant lyrics were painted in 16th Street NW in addition to the intersection was renamed “Black Lives Matter Plaza” in the summer of 2020 during Trump’s first mandate.
The head of the publishing board of the publication said: “DC can respect Black Lives Matter without street art.”
Bowser authorized the changes after the days of chaotic protests in that place about police brutality after the murder of George Floyd for a Minneapolis and Breonna Taylor police officer by Louisville police officers.
The mayor announced earlier this week that the The square will be redesigned by students and artists, to whom the city is responsible for creating new murals for the area, which caused protests inside and around the square.
Bowser’s call occurs when Republicans in Congress have attacked the square. The representative Andrew Clyde, Republican of G-G., Recently introduced HR 1774, which, if it passes, “retained certain distribution funds of the Columbia district unless the mayor of the Columbia district eliminates the phrase that black lives are important from the street symbolically designated as Black Lives Matter Plaza.”
The Post Board argued that such attacks against the city by the federal government require that the mayor make these more minor concessions.

The editorial declared: “But what Bowser understands, and what many of her critics seem not to be willing to accept, is that she possesses little power to prevent Trump and her republicans from damaging the city. Her main task is now minimizing that damage.”
The piece also specifically mentioned Clyde’s bill, pointing out how evidence that the legislators of the Republican party oppose the square that are “willing to deprive the city … of the resources it needs to function.”
The Board also mentioned how Trump has recently “threatened” the city to clean crimes camps, graffiti and homeless. He He said to journalists In Air Force One last month, “I think we should execute it strongly, execute it with law and order, do it absolutely, without problems.”
The publishing house added that Bowser renouncing Blm Plaza “seems to be paying off.” He continued: “The post reported this week that the president has withdrawn his threatened executive order, thanks to ‘constructive conversations’ with the mayor’s staff. This is a victory for the city.”
The post argued that this fight is about “choosing the battles of one wisely” and concluded with the idea that the city should “focus on the problems that affect people’s daily lives: reduce crime, build affordable homes and create a vibrant economy” instead of looking at street art.
