HELP PLEASE!!!

Write what you observe. What do you think it means. Why do you think someone would make street art about this? Is this about a topic?

The Statue of Liberty in New York City is shown in this image. That was, indeed, a gift from France. The individual who created this street art portrayed the Statue of Liberty in a unique way; first, the facial features deviate from the original. Not to mention that aspects of the Statue is shown cut apart. I feel this artwork is about a specific subject. The fist is commonly used to symbolize equality and black rights. And the colors are identical to those found on the American flag. This piece could be interpreted to indicate something about inequality in New York, which could be why someone was inspired to create something like this.

Hope this helps :)
