George Floyd Square Gas Station: “Fuck Trump Fuck Obama” Graffiti

Graffiti on the former Speedway gas station at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis.
Graffiti on the former Speedway gas station at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis reads, "they could give everyone shelter, clean water, healthy food, but instead they bomb other countries. fuck trump fuck obama." This message reflects sentiments expressed during the period of unrest following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020, when the intersection was occupied and renamed by protesters. The Speedway station became a focal point within the autonomous zone, serving as a site for community gathering and artistic expression. The graffiti critiques perceived government priorities and foreign policy.
