LeBeouf announced that he wanted to a create a protest that went the duration of Trump’s presidency. His protest project began at the New York’s Museum of the Moving Image. LeBeouf wanted to post a 24/7 livestream of protesters chanting, “He will not divide us.”
But after 21 days in New York, the city shut down his protest, citing an “ongoing public safety hazard.” LeBeouf was even arrested one time for assaulting a counter-protester.
After NYC closed LeBeouf’s art exhibit, he moved his protest to Albuquerque, New Mexico. But it was shut down late last month after gun shots were heard near the exhibit.
LeBeouf relaunched the project earlier in March, this time from an “unknown location.” The protest was a 24/7 lifestream of a white flag with the same rallying cry from New York: “He will not divide us.”
