Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Councilman Jerry Kerns and Reginald Owens, the present publicity chair for the North County branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, unveil one of two pieces of art which were originally installed 11 years ago but went missing sometime since then in Oceanside, Calif., Feb. 25. The two missing pieces of art were part 14 of the “King Sculptures” along Mesa Boulevard. The other 12 pieces sustained significant weather damage.

“We got together and raised money with the community,” Owens said. “The original artist, Roberto Salis, said he would refurbish the 12 pieces and replace the two missing pieces. We unveil the two pieces that were missing today.” The stretch of Mesa Boulevard that passes Martin Luther King Jr. School holds the 14 road-sign style displays and has been re-designated as the Martin Luther King Jr. Corridor. The community members who participated in the unveiling marched along the corridor, stopped at each art piece and read quotes from famous civil rights-era activists.

“We are doing a re-enactment of the civil rights era,” Owens said. “At each of the 14 pieces we say something demonstrative of that specific piece.”
