George Floyd Square: Meet the Demands in Chalk

Meet the 24 Demands written on the cement at George Floyd Square
Chalked messages on the pavement at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis, including "MEET THE 24 DEMANDS," reflect ongoing activism more than a year after the street was reopened to vehicles. The square, established in the summer of 2020 following the murder of George Floyd, has been a focal point for community organizing and demands for justice. Despite city initiatives like "38th & Chicago Re-Envisioned," the core message from activists remains consistent: the fulfillment of their demands. A sign reading "Say Their Names" is visible within the garden area, underscoring the continued remembrance and advocacy efforts.
