Some object to controversial Nation of Islam leader's inclusion, but mural creator has not yet made a decision.
Feiner supported public funding for the mural, but says it should not include a divisive figure such as Farrakhan.Community activist Clifton Abrams says the sketch was not a blueprint and the artist had freedom to add elements.
Some communication issues seem to be at play here as well. On Thursday, the town board, including its two African-American members, put out a statement saying the artist had agreed to paint over the image of Farrakhan. "I haven't made a decision to do anything. I wasn't really sure where we stood. I was kind of told that all funding could be pulled from the project," Art said.
