Revolution
George Perry Floyd (October 14, 1973 - May 25, 2020) was a 46-year-old Black American man who was murdered by former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin after Chauvin knelt on Floyd’s neck for nearly 9 minutes in the Powderhorn neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 25, 2020. Floyd’s murder sparked an international movement for Black Lives Matter, the largest civil rights movement of the century. On March 12, 2021, the city of Minneapolis agreed to pay $27 million to settle a wrongful death lawsuit brought by Floyd's family. On June 25, 2021, Chauvin was sentenced to 22.5 years in prison for his crimes.

Strange Fruit
Two painted panels. The first has an image of a Black woman as a tree. Her neck and shoulder comprise the trunk and roots. Her hair is leaves with birds emerging from it. "Strange Fruit, Billie Holiday 1939," and music notes swirl through the wind around her.
The second panel has more birds in the air and grass along the bottom of the panel. "I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow and that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow, Stevie Wonder 1973," is in the center. The blades of grass have the names of Black people killed by police on them.
