One hundred Long Beach Middle School students in Laura Swan's sixth-grade art classes created a handmade African Textile Paper Quilt featuring Adrinka symbols. The pieces, designed and sewn by students, were assembled to spell out the message “One Love” in the building’s hallway. 

On Feb. 28, Councilwoman Anissa Moore joined the students and staff members as the final product was revealed. She also led them in an exercise that involved saying “Good Morning” in Swahili.
