New mural in South Philadelphia shines light on immigrant workers

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A beautiful, new 30-foot mural is now on display in South Philadelphia.

It's called "Labor and Love Intertwined" and it shines a light on the immigrant workers who continue to shape the history and culture of the South 9th Street Italian Market.

Action News Content Creator Bill Hartung introduces us to the artist behind the mural, who says this piece is very personal.
