During protests in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, following the death of Daunte Wright in April 2021, a demonstrator holds a sign displaying a phone number for jail support. This number, likely for the National Lawyers Guild or a similar organization, was intended to provide legal assistance to those arrested during the demonstrations. The presence of law enforcement in riot gear underscores the tense atmosphere of the protests, which were a response to police violence and systemic issues.
