MLK & George Floyd Mural, Red Cow, Uptown Minneapolis

A mural honoring George Floyd and Martin Luther King Jr. covers the boarded-up windows of the Red Cow restaurant in Uptown Minneapolis, situated on Hennepin Avenue. This artwork was created during the Minneapolis Uprising in May 2020, a period of widespread protest and civil unrest following the killing of George Floyd. The mural features the phrase 'REST IN POWER GEORGE FLOYD SAY HIS NAME' alongside a quote from Martin Luther King Jr., 'To ignore evil is to accomplice it.' These temporary art installations transformed commercial storefronts into public canvases for expressions of grief, remembrance, and calls for justice during a significant historical moment.
