The Safe Harbor Initiative

Take a walk around your neighborhood. Have you seen any blue strips painted on street curbs in front of homes and businesses? If you haven’t, you will soon. A Texas man named Anthony Welichko started what is now known as the Safe Harbor Initiative by spray painting a small blue strip on the curb in front of his house. That strip is to let officers know the person occupying that home or business has their back and appreciates all they do for the community.

There are a lot of bad cops out there, but the majority are good and just want to do their job without being called a racist or without the fear of being killed. Let’s hold them accountable when they cross the line, but show our support as well.

Would you want to see this on your hospital building?

This art install is not on a hospital. It is actually on the side of the Fulton County Public Health Dept in Atlanta. It does provoke opinion what is “appropriate” though. If I were riddled with cancer and heading into a hospital for treatment, this is exactly what I would want to see. Then again, sometimes the sweet release into death is the best possible outcome. What do you think? Offensive or inspirational?
