Minneapolis Protest Sign: ‘Hey Derek you forgot your hat’

Protests after Derek Chauvin is released from jail
A protest sign reading "Hey Derek you forgot your hat!" is held during a march in downtown Minneapolis, the day after former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin was released on bond. The sign also features a drawing resembling a Ku Klux Klan hood, with additional text including "BREAK THE THIN BLUE LINE" and "ARREST KILLER KKK OPS?". Protesters marched towards the Minneapolis Police 1st Precinct, a central facility in the city's public safety infrastructure, to voice opposition to Chauvin's release and demand police accountability. This event took place amidst the broader Minneapolis Uprising, a series of protests against police brutality and racial injustice that gained national and international attention following the death of George Floyd.
