Minneapolis Poster: People’s Independence May 28, 2020

A poster affixed to a pole in Minneapolis references "The People's Independence" and "Power and Justice in the Hands of the People." The poster also depicts an image of a building engulfed in flames, alluding to the burning of the Minneapolis Third Precinct police station on May 28, 2020. This event occurred during protests following the murder of George Floyd, a Black man who died in police custody. The poster serves as a visual artifact of the unrest and calls for systemic change that characterized the Minneapolis Uprising.
