Minneapolis Government Center: Razor wire and protest signs

Razor wire and protest signs surround the Hennepin County Government Center in Minneapolis during the trial of Derek Chauvin.

The area has become a focal point for demonstrations, with protesters decorating the fencing with signs and ribbons, indicating a continuous occupation of the space.
