Youth Pledging Peace is a mural by a youth group of that name working with artist Michael Massenburg. YPP is a city parks and recreation youth program, designed to engage thirteen- to seventeen-year-olds in community enhancement. The youth developed a symbol of a globe surrounded by colorful hand imprints, realized through the technical expertise of the professional artist.

The project was created in partnership between the city and Inglewood Cultural Arts, the non-profit group co-founded by Mr. Massenburg.
