Not a great picture, but an interesting one nonetheless. This tree is located in front of Woodlawn High School in Birmingham.

Both of these Woodlawn alumni are hoping to draw attention to efforts to restore the largest mural created under the Works Progress Administration as part of President F.D. Roosevelt’s New Deal.
