The George Floyd Square Memorial, located at the intersection of Chicago Avenue and East 38th Street in Minneapolis, Minnesota, stands as a testament to the protests and uprisings that followed the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. This site, which was occupied by protesters for over a year, has become a permanent memorial and a gathering place for community remembrance and activism. The memorial features various tributes, including flowers, candles, and artwork, arranged around a central monument. Despite the winter snow, the site remains a significant location for reflecting on racial justice and police brutality.
