A mural titled "The Statue of Liberty’s Silent Protest," depicting the Statue of Liberty covering her face in apparent shame, was unveiled in Roubaix, France, on July 3, 2025, one day before the United States' Independence Day. The artwork was created by Dutch artist Judith de Leeuw. The mural is interpreted as a critique of U.S. immigration policies under President Donald Trump, with the artist stating that the figure covers her eyes because "the weight of the world has become too heavy to witness." The depiction has sparked controversy and backlash in the United States, particularly among supporters of Trump, who view it as a political statement against the administration's approach to immigration enforcement. The mural's location in Roubaix, a city with a large migrant population, and its timing ahead of the Fourth of July have contributed to its prominence in public discourse. The artwork has been widely discussed in both French and American media, highlighting tensions over immigration and national values symbolized by the Statue of Liberty.
