George Floyd & Mapping Prejudice Wheat Paste, Uptown Mpls

Wheat paste art featuring George Floyd and a poster from Mapping Prejudice is displayed on Hennepin Avenue in Uptown Minneapolis. The colorful poster, designed by Mapping Prejudice, subverts the phrase "Minneapolis The Happiest Place on Earth" with a character resembling Snow White stating "Let's Seek Justice for George!", drawing attention to the city's history of racial covenants. Adjacent to it, a black and white poster of George Floyd includes a quote attributed to Inka insurgent Tupac Katari, linking his struggle to broader historical narratives of resistance. These public art installations emerged during the Minneapolis Uprising, serving as a visual protest against racial injustice and a call for accountability following George Floyd's murder. They underscore the ongoing efforts to confront the city's past and present racial disparities, particularly those documented by the Mapping Prejudice project.
