The NYPD's Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating after a third incident of racist vandalism at the Black Wall Street Gallery in SoHo in one week.
Police say someone used white paint to put the letters "EDHRLL" on a window display at the gallery on Mercer Street Tuesday morning
"It's so cryptic," gallery owner Dr. Ricco Wright said. "Nobody knows. Could be someone's initials...apart from that, I don't know, and the gall of a person to say there's real art on the door when there is real art beyond the door."

One hundred years ago, a violent white supremacist mob raided, firebombed, and destroyed approximately 35 square blocks of the thriving Black neighborhood of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Families and children were murdered in cold blood. Homes, businesses, and churches were burned. In all, as many as 300 Black Americans were killed, and nearly 10,000 were left destitute and homeless. Today, on this solemn centennial of the Tulsa Race Massacre, I call on the American people to reflect on the deep roots of racial terror in our Nation and recommit to the work of rooting out systemic racism across our country.
