George Floyd Square Warming Shelter, Minneapolis, March 2021

George Floyd Square Warming Shelter
A temporary warming shelter was erected at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis in March 2021, near the barricades that had been established following the murder of George Floyd. This structure provided refuge during cold weather for individuals present at the occupied space. The square, a focal point of protests and activism, was transformed into a community space after Floyd's death in May 2020. The shelter's presence highlights the ongoing community organizing and mutual aid efforts within the protest zone.
