Multiracial Hands Making a Circle

After racist graffiti showed up outside a Rock Hill high school, three art students showed the town their true colors Monday afternoon painting a message of equality.

Advanced Placement art students, Andrew Swiger, Madison Wightman and Quinton Cole painted an image of the Earth on a large rock outside South Pointe High School with the words “We are all =”.

“While the district is disappointed in the actions of those who painted the rock, we will not let them take from us our joy or success in the progress our community has made, and will continue to make, in racial relations,” wrote the Rick Hill School District 3 on their Facebook Page.
