Protesters gathered outside the Hennepin County Government Center in Minneapolis on March 8, 2021, ahead of the Derek Chauvin trial. Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, was charged in the murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020. The sign "Abolish Police + Prisons" reflects a central demand of the Black Lives Matter movement, which gained widespread attention following Floyd's death and has continued to advocate for systemic reform of law enforcement and the justice system.
