Lake Street, Minneapolis: “Deona Marie” Graffiti on Parking Garage

Graffiti memorializing Deona Marie is visible on a parking garage along Lake Street in Minneapolis. The area has been a site of ongoing protests and unrest since the June 2021 killing of Winston Smith by a federal task force. Ten days after Smith's death, Deona Marie was killed when a vehicle drove through protest barricades on Lake Street. The graffiti serves as a reminder of these events and the community's response.
