Pictures from Idriss Stelley Memorial at the Metreon - 4/24/04
Mesha Monge-Irizarry requested permission from the Metreon to build a memorial altar for her son inside as part of the Metreon's April 24, 2004 Earth Day exhibition, but she never received a response. So people decided to create the memorial outside of the Metreon.
"Care for the earth means also caring for our communities," Monge-Irizarry said. "The racism behind the shooting of my son is also responsible for the environmental assaults on our health and well being in Bayview Hunters Point. Earth healing must begin with justice."
