In Oakland, California, Breonna Taylor's statue was vandalized in an act of hatred, and now the community is furious. The sculpture was installed two weeks ago in Latham Square near City Hall by Leo Carson, a sculptor. Breonna Taylor was a Kentucky woman killed during a police raid. "Say her name, Breonna Taylor" has become a civil rights call for justice. Carson said he would rebuild the bust and has started a GoFundMe page to raise money to recast the art in bronze. On Sunday afternoon, the GoFundMe page had raised $3,370 from 73 donors, giving between $10 and $200 each. On Sunday night, Joe Cotchett came forwarded and said his Burlingame law firm Cotchett, Pitre & McCarthy, LLP, would fund the damaged sculpture's restoration. Oakland police are still investigating an act of vandalism.
