George Floyd Square • Demand #24: GFS Zone Remains Closed to Traffic Until After The Trial
Several months after the modern-day lynching of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department, the city of Minneapolis requested to open up the intersection of 38th & Chicago, where Floyd was murdered, to vehicle traffic.

In short: No Justice, No Streets.
