George Floyd Square: Chair and table in Minneapolis snow

Chair and table at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis amid winter snow.
A chair and table, hand-painted with "GEORGE FLOYD," are situated in the snow at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis. This location, formerly the intersection of Chicago Avenue and 38th Street, became a significant site for protests and activism following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. The area was occupied by activists for an extended period, during which the "Say Their Names Cemetery" memorial was established. The presence of these objects in the winter landscape serves as a somber reminder of Floyd's death and the square's continued importance as a place of remembrance and protest.
