Black History Barricades at George Floyd Square

Black History Month at George Floyd Square
Barricades spelling 'BLACK HISTORY' line Chicago Avenue in South Minneapolis, marking the perimeter of George Floyd Square, a significant site of protest and memorial since the 2020 murder of George Floyd. This intersection, including the George Floyd Memorial, functions as a community space and a powerful symbol of the ongoing struggle for racial justice. The painted barricades and surrounding tributes reflect the historical context and continued activism associated with the site. Unity Foods, a local business, stands illuminated in the background, part of the community surrounding the memorial.
