Amir Locke Memorial Graffiti at Minneapolis Police First Precinct

Amir Locke graffiti outside Minneapolis Police First Precinct in downtown Minneapolis at night.
Graffiti honoring Amir Locke is displayed on the exterior of the Minneapolis Police Department's First Precinct building in downtown Minneapolis. Locke, a 22-year-old Black man, was killed by a Minneapolis police officer during a no-knock warrant execution in February 2022. His death led to protests and renewed calls for police reform in the city. The First Precinct building has served as a site for public expression following incidents of police violence, with this graffiti acting as a memorial and a statement of remembrance for Locke and the broader movement for racial justice.
