Midtown Greenway Sign with Graffiti and Poster, South Minneapolis

There no such thing as good police poster
A sign for the Midtown Greenway in South Minneapolis is covered in graffiti and a poster. The Midtown Greenway is a 5.5-mile-long trail built on a former railroad corridor, connecting the Mississippi River to the Chain of Lakes. The poster, which reads "BEWARE! THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS GOOD POLICE," reflects sentiments expressed during the Minneapolis Uprising of 2020, which followed the murder of George Floyd. The graffiti and poster suggest a commentary on public space and social justice issues within the urban environment.
