Issue:
Cleveland has been disrupted by a wave of senseless violence that is dividing the community.

Challenge:
Through the application and understanding of meaning and monumentality; how might we consider the development of a place or object that could have an effect on the audience to begin to re-kindle a spirit understanding and tolerance by educating those encountering this intervention to become more open and thoughtful in dealing with the issue?
