Minneapolis Police Car Passes “Abolish The Police” Mural

Minneapolis Police Squad Car and Abolish The Police
Minneapolis Police Squad Car and Abolish The Police.

A Minneapolis Police Department squad car passes a mural on Minnehaha Avenue that reads "Abolish The Police." The mural, painted on plywood covering a building, appeared in the context of widespread protests and calls for police reform following the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May 2020. The "Open Streets" event, which temporarily closes streets to vehicles for community use, was concluding as the police vehicle drove by. The presence of the police car and the mural highlights the ongoing tensions and discussions surrounding policing in the city.
