The People's Way awning, a prominent feature at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis, is illuminated by the Northern Lights. Located at the intersection of Chicago Avenue and East 38th Street, George Floyd Square emerged as a significant memorial and protest site after the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. This site continues to serve as a powerful symbol of the Minneapolis Uprising and a space for collective reflection and advocacy.
