Minneapolis Uprising: Justice 4 George Floyd Boards, Hennepin Ave

Justice 4 George Floyd boards on Hennepin Ave
Plywood boards bearing the message 'Justice 4 George Floyd' cover the windows of a retail store at 2741 Hennepin Avenue in Uptown Minneapolis. These boards were installed during the Minneapolis Uprising in May and June 2020, a period of widespread protest and civil unrest following the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police. Many businesses in Minneapolis boarded up their windows to protect against potential damage, and these surfaces often became canvases for public art and messages related to the movement. The graffiti art on these boards served as a visual testament to the community's demand for justice and accountability, reflecting the widespread impact of the uprising on the urban environment.
