Washington's new BLACK LIVES MATTER mural is so huge, you can see it from space.

New satellite images from Planet Labs clearly show the bright yellow message amid the gray Lego-looking buildings on the street leading to the White House, its grandeur minimized by the distance.The satellite photo. Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser commissioned the mural, which spans two blocks of 16th Street, as protests across the nation and the globe continue against police brutality after the deaths of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd.

John's Episcopal Church, as the protests against the death of George Floyd while in Minneapolis police custody continue.Still, the gesture has not been welcomed by all. The DC chapter of the Black Lives Matter Global Network has criticized it, calling it"performative.""This is a performative distraction from real policy changes. Bowser has consistently been on the wrong side of BLMDC history," the group tweeted.

American4Love This is so great!! Mayor Bowser is doing a great job.

CNN ok

Well that ought to solve everything now 🤦🏻‍♀️

As is should be !

May it live as a reminder come November election time trumpMustGo !

That’s because the ppl are humongous behind the mural and not only on USA soil but globally around the world even if y’all can’t see them all though not all countries have that systematic behavior but they don’t support racism outside cultures welcome anyone into their country

Black lives matter=56 CoronaVirus=56 washington dc=56 mind control=56 toilet paper=56 time to wake up yall

Sad part is not all black lives matter

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Well, isnt that just super special.

That’s not that far up

Their skin colors didn’t make this a racist crime

Should be written in every one of the Democrat controlled cities that have major race problems.

What about other law abiding lives, do they matter?

Trumps still your president

This brave lady tells the BLM protestors the truth about the moral absurdities surrounding the movement. Good for her.👏👏👏👏

And yet no sign of the point.

Love the yellow painted Black Lives Matter.

Washington's new BLACK LIVES MATTER mural is so huge, you can see it from space, and the Oval Office.

This is the most beautiful scenery for democracy in this country. I even think the Secretary of the White House should have a slogan like this to remind all the racists

this image must be a trend in defense of the nation

lesleyabravanel Yes, by all means you silly people, focus on this type of “news.” It’s right up your alley.

What a waste of tax payer money, Hope Trump doesn't get the bill.

No justice, no peace, Reparations Now!!! holyuprising ReparationsNow

The Mayor of DC (dcmayorsoffice) is an incompetent petty fool who couldn't get her way and decided to unhouse and disarm National Guard (with Esper Help), complain about WH access during a riot, and paint LUDICROUS BLM message on street, using Traffic Paint. City resources used.

Fake news

Google Earth can see a cat sitting on a porch.

Sweet!

If Trump could see it up close it would do

You can see my house from space. It's called Google Maps.

CNN discovers Google Earth. You can see the numbers on a dollar bill from space with some of the satellites out there... SMDH.

They need that in Chicago....

Anything to avoid dealing with the issue in any meaningful way

Orchestrated Outrage

They solved racism! Great job

You can see the rake I left in my yard from space.

Old news.

How many time's is CNN going to post the same article. News flash you can see anything from space with a good enough camera.

Not that impressive considering they can zoom in and see whats written on a business card using satellites these days

Nobody cares

POTUS is fuming right now lol BlackLivesMattters

Should be ALLLIVESMATTER

The Biggest 'Up Yours' in history, and it's meant for You-Know-Who...

Hey Trump do you Seeeeeee It👀👀👀👀👀👀

God can see it, but unfortunately Donald Trump can't.

blackrepublican It's only a street shot you can get of any street in the world. How to amplify a lie from the media fake news experts

The racist aliens aren’t gonna fly past America anymore

Huuuge

I can go on Google maps and see my car in the driveway from space so is that really impressive in 2020?

So cool!

If you zoom in on arrowhead stadium you see chiefs

tamaraholder That's graffiti. Needs to be cleaned up.

Historical.

People aren't working probably not eating, good use of money.

SethAbramson New White House address: 1600 Black Lives Matter Plaza NW.

Still have some racist people commenting here . Having a issue with it.. talking about vandalize u people should bury yourself or go hide under a rock n stay there

At what point in space, from tje moon distance, Mars, Jupiter or the Sun? CNN shame on you.

How ironic considering the crime rate.

So can your stupidity.

More property destroyed.

you can't see all the broken windows from there..lol

CNN the most useless network

Lies

Ridiculous!

NOW ALIENS KNOW WHAT MORONS ON EARTH LOOK LIKE

Don't you dare to create a gap among communities rather you can create an atmosphere of unity if u believe in peace, communal harmony..

It should be equal rights for all...

LMAO, keep up the racist reporting.

i'm from DC and this is a fucking joke. the mayor of DC needs to pay more attention to the violence in DC done by blacks against blacks

welcome to our community latinos and asians

Black lives matter is violent and should not be glorified on our streets. Shameful

Sorry, it's racist.

Ummm they can read license plates... surely you’re not suggesting the naked eye

If it said grey lives matter, maybe the aliens would come!

Hope they pave over that racist shit

If only the mayor concentrated this much on murder rates.

Hello CNN ...you can see any surface of the planet from a satellite 🛰 how stupid do you think your views are? ... oh yeah they’re your viewers ... pretty dumb

SethAbramson Trump isn't gonna like this. BlackLivesMatter

I hope God can see it, I know Trump can't.

too bad the white house put the blinds down. TrumpIsANationalDisgrace TrumpIsARacist

piersmorgan Blocked me because of this poll! VOTE AND PLEASE RT

This is pure and simple vandalism

I guess Jews lives don't matter

Explain how paying city workers to do this helps?

They can see bird shit on a car windshield from space. Kinda the same thing I guess.

Anyone protesting the fact that blacks commit more murders in theUS? Blacks commit more murders than cops!

Good. Those damn space racists better learn

I bet you can see the rioters too.

Take a real good look at it and when the time is right try to shove it up your ass.

My guess is that was the plan. I think this should be retweeted to DJT millions of times.

With modern technological advancements, is there anything which is not visible from Space? Stop exaggerating and infuriating !!
