I chose to take this picture because even though the fountains were covered to prevent the spread of COVID-19, it was reminiscent of the segregated water fountains pre 1960's. I thought it was an interesting visual since there have been studies to show that black neighborhoods are being disproportionately affected by COVID-19.
