Red ribbons with names of victims of police brutality on fence at Hennepin County Courthouse

Red ribbons bearing the names and brief accounts of victims of police brutality are affixed to the security fencing surrounding the Hennepin County Government Center in Minneapolis. This display was visible on the day opening statements began in the trial of Derek Chauvin, who was accused of murdering George Floyd on May 25, 2020. The ribbons serve as a memorial and a protest, highlighting broader issues of police violence that have been a focus of public attention and activism.
