Fencing at Winston Smith protest site

Fencing at Winston Smith protest site July 2021
Temporary fencing and concrete barriers surround a parking garage that previously served as a memorial site for Winston Smith and Deona Marie in Minneapolis. The site became a focal point for protests following Smith's death in June 2021. The fencing, erected by private security, indicates ongoing efforts to control access and manage the area. The graffiti on the concrete barriers, including messages about seeing color and being built, reflects the complex social and racial dynamics that have been prominent in Minneapolis.
