Minneapolis 3rd Precinct Patch on Protester Backpack

Welcome to Minneapolis patch on protesters backpack
A protester's backpack displays a patch reading "Welcome to Minneapolis!" above an image of the Minneapolis Police Department's 3rd Precinct building engulfed in flames. This patch was likely created in response to the unrest and protests that followed the murder of George Floyd in May 2020, and the subsequent burning of the 3rd Precinct building. The image was taken during a march in Downtown Minneapolis following the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse in November 2021, a period marked by continued public discourse and activism surrounding policing and justice in the city.
Photo taken in November 2021.
