George Floyd Square at Night, Minneapolis

Raised fist at night in George Floyd Square
Raised fist at night in George Floyd Square.

The "Raised Fist" monument stands at the intersection of 38th Street and Chicago Avenue in Minneapolis, a site that became known as George Floyd Square. This area was occupied by protesters for months following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. The "Land Back" and "BIPOC" graffiti on the barricade reflects the broader social justice movements that converged at this location. The square served as a focal point for demonstrations against racial injustice and police brutality.
