Candles lit over names of police violence victims, Chicago Ave

Candles cover the names of victims of police violence
Candles illuminate names painted on the asphalt at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis. This site, located at the intersection of Chicago Avenue and East 38th Street, became a permanent memorial following the killing of George Floyd by police on May 25, 2020. The names represent individuals killed by police, while the lit candles serve as a vigil and a collective act of remembrance for victims of police violence. The square functions as a community space and a powerful symbol of the ongoing movement for racial justice and accountability.
