Graffiti: “If we die 12 die” in South Minneapolis
Graffiti reading "If we die 12 die" is spray-painted on a street in South Minneapolis, Minnesota. The phrase likely refers to the "12" as a symbol for police, a common sentiment expressed during protests and civil unrest. This message appeared in the context of the 2020 Uprising, a period of widespread protests against police brutality and racial injustice that followed the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. The graffiti serves as a raw expression of community sentiment and a historical marker of the period's social and political climate.
