Fence erected to protect the White House from protesters becomes Black Lives Matter memorial

As protests ramped up this week, the Trump administration erected around 1.7 miles of metal mesh fence around the White House. Now, the fence is becoming a makeshift display for protest art and memorials to victims of police violence.

Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson uploaded a video to Twitter showing a portion of the fence adorned with signs and memorials.
