Graffiti reading "George" and "RIP" adorns a garbage can at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis. This location became an autonomous zone and memorial following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. For several months, community members organized events and managed the space, transforming it into a hub for activism and remembrance. The square continues to serve as a significant site honoring George Floyd's life and the broader Minneapolis Uprising.
