GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. â We continue our conversation on how the city of Grand Rapids has grown over the past year after the protests and civil unrest in response to the death of George Floyd.
The
Grand Rapids Public Museum is actually the oldest museum in the state of Michigan and is collecting pieces to teach and tell stories for future generations.
"The fact that this museum is actually taking the time to understand what the message means and appreciate it, it just means the world to me that I helped, that I'm a part of that,â said artist Jalexia Stoutmyre.
