George Floyd mural at Cup Foods covered after vandalism

The George Floyd mural on the exterior of Cup Foods, located at E 38th Street in Minneapolis, is covered by a blue tarp. This action followed an act of vandalism against the artwork, which is a prominent feature of the George Floyd Memorial at George Floyd Square. The site gained profound historical significance as the location where George Floyd was killed in May 2020, leading to global protests against racial injustice. The ongoing makeshift memorial in front of the store continues to serve as a focal point for remembrance and advocacy.
