In Rhode Island, a group of locals, self-dubbed the "anti-graffiti vigilantes," are taking action against vandalism by erasing illegal graffiti from the state's rocky coastline. Led by artist Holley Flagg, these volunteers use a technique of carefully matching paint to the rocks' natural colors to camouflage the graffiti, restoring the natural beauty of the area. Their efforts are appreciated by many who visit the shore, and they have become a dedicated force in preserving the visual environment of Rhode Island's beaches.
