Taken April 2021
Air fresheners hang from the fencing surrounding the Brooklyn Center Police Department, a site of protests following the fatal shooting of Daunte Wright on April 11, 2021. The protests, which lasted for several days, were a response to the killing of the 20-year-old by a police officer during a traffic stop. Reports indicated Wright was pulled over for an air freshener hanging from his rearview mirror, a detail that became a poignant symbol of the unrest.
