Community comes together to back England footballer and oppose racism after mural was defaced
For Ed Wellard, “there was a kind of inevitability” to hearing that the mural of Marcus Rashford had been defaced after England’s Euro 2020 final defeat.
Wellard is a co-founder of Withington Walls, a community street art project that commissions works of public art in the south Manchester suburb where the footballer spent his early years before the family moved to Wythenshawe.
