Shelton Johnson Calls

Amuri Morris

A mural-style atwork in which Shelton Johnson, the famed African American park ranger famous for his efforts at outreach to the Black community, plays a flute in the lower right, while four Black children, hearing the call, get excited and run through their neighborhood past a stop sign and a corner bodega to find him.
