Crowds gather at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis following the conviction of Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd. The square, located at the intersection of Chicago Avenue and 38th Street, became a focal point for protests and community organizing after Floyd's death in May 2020. The area has been transformed into a memorial and a space for ongoing activism, reflecting the community's demands for racial justice and police accountability. The billboards in the background display messages related to Floyd's death and the broader movement for justice.
