“Don’t Look Away” – Skateboard

Unique Custom hand painted skateboard to hang titled "Don't Look Away" created by artist Loic Ercolessi for SAM’s #FreeChildren campaign, activated with the voice of activist, Pulitzer Prize finalist, New York Times bestselling author, and former Harvard professor Siddharth Kara.

The Purpose: “Don’t Look Away” sounds the alarm on the 35,000+ children forced to mine cobalt in deadly conditions—cobalt that ultimately powers the batteries in our phones and laptops.

More: The #FreeChildren campaign, curated and produced by Street Art for Mankind (SAM), is a powerful initiative raising awareness about the global realities of child labor and trafficking. The campaign hacked over 100+ billboards in NYC, using art to reveal real children’s stories and amplify their voices.
