Three prints include portraits of Black men killed by the police in the Twin Cities: Philando Castille, George Floyd, and Daunte Wright. These panels include text reading "Black Lives Matter." One image shows three fists raised in the air with text reading "Minneapolis United." An image of an anatomical heart is joined with text reading "Rethink Not Reform." A phoenix rising from the flames is accompanied by the text "We Rise Up Together." An image with protestors reads "No Justice, No Peace."
