Daunte Wright Memorial at George Floyd Square, Minneapolis

Daunte Wright Memorial after Kim Potter verdict
The Daunte Wright Memorial stands at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis, a site that became a focal point for protests following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. The memorial, seen here in December 2021, includes handmade signs bearing Wright's name and messages of remembrance, alongside artificial flowers and candles. This location, formerly the intersection of 38th Street and Chicago Avenue, was occupied by protesters for an extended period, transforming it into a space for community gathering and activism. The memorial serves as a poignant reminder of the ongoing calls for racial justice and police accountability in the United States.
