George Floyd Square: Remembering Malcolm X in Winter

George Floyd Square and Malcolm X
George Floyd Square and Malcolm X.

A young person places flowers on a memorial at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis during winter. The square, established in the wake of George Floyd's murder in May 2020, has become a site of protest and remembrance. The gathering also honored Malcolm X, a prominent figure in the Civil Rights Movement, and explorer Matthew Henson, who was part of the first expedition to reach the North Pole. The event, which included the GFS Liberation Loppet, served as a moment to reflect on Black liberation movements and historical figures.
