Help Bring the DC Democracy Mural to Life

In the heart of Washington, D.C., a new symbol of civic power is about to take shape — and you can help make it happen.

We’re proud to join forces with a US Army veteran and former US Senate aide, ESSAM, and Local Democracy Action to create the DC Democracy Mural — a powerful public art project reminding us that democracy is reclaimed not through division or violence, but through our shared humanity and participation at the local level.

Soon, a prominent wall on Florida Avenue NW, across from the historic Howard Theater, will be transformed into a vibrant celebration of civic engagement. At its center will be President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s timeless words:

“The ultimate rulers of our democracy… are the voters of this country.”

This mural will stand as a beacon of creative resistance and civic renewal — sparking conversation, inspiring courage, and anchoring a movement rising from the ground up.

Your tax-deductible gift to People For the American Way Foundation will help bring this public artwork to life and advance its message of civic engagement and democracy.

Add your support today and help us paint a vision of democracy that belongs to everyone.
