British artist Banksy, whose paintings sell for millions of dollars, has decided to highlight the migrant crisis problem in the Mediterranean. To that end, he has bought and equipped a boat to help save migrants trying to make their way to Europe.
The artwork appeared as thousands of people gathered in London and other cities around the world to protest the May 25 killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, where a white police officer detaining him knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes.
