The mural above was spotted in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of DC after brunch on Sunday. Only after seeing the small sign next to the mural did I recognize the significance for Hispanic Heritage Month. The mural was originally painted in 1977, and is supposedly the oldest and only mural remaining in Adams Morgan from a group of Latino artists. The mural was restored in 2005 by Sol & Soul and artist Juan Pineda.
