Flyer about the 2020 George Floyd protest on the Midtown Greenway in Minneapolis with anti-police graffiti nearby.

A flyer posted on the Minneapolis Midtown Greenway commemorates the "Minneapolis Uprising" that began on May 25, 2020, following the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police. The flyer includes an image of buildings engulfed in flames and text describing the events as "righteous rebellion" and "revolutionary violence." Graffiti on a nearby structure, visible in the background, echoes the sentiment with slogans such as "Abolition Now" and "Burn All Precincts." The Midtown Greenway is a popular urban trail built on a former railroad corridor, which became a site of public assembly and protest during the unrest.
