No Justice No Peace in front of South Minneapolis bench.

The phrase 'No Justice, No Peace' is spray-painted in red on a sidewalk next to a public bench in South Minneapolis. This slogan became a prominent rallying cry during the widespread protests and civil unrest that followed the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May 2020. Such public markings served as a direct expression of community grief, anger, and demands for systemic change, transforming urban spaces into sites of protest and remembrance. These messages, often temporary, marked the physical landscape of the city, reflecting the ongoing struggle for racial justice.
