Above: Workers break up the pavement in front of the White House on 16th Street Northwest on Monday to remove the words “Black Lives Matter.” Georgia Republican Rep. Andrew Clyde introduced legislation last week that threatened to withhold federal funding to the District of Columbia unless the words were removed.

Below: Black Lives Matter Plaza is seen on July 27, 2020. A procession was carrying the remains of the late Rep. John Lewis, who died on July 17, to the Capitol where the Georgia Democrat was to lie in state.
