RISE
A large-scale wheat paste mural takes up the side of a business wall. The image is on a black rectangular background, bordered with white/cream. A Native person looks up at the word "RISE" bordered by two lightning bolts. Their portrait is done in a pop-art style. They wear a pair of traditional-style earrings, one with a lightning bolt in its center and the other with a cross. Most of the portrait beyond their face is shadowed.

George Floyd // Black Lives Matter
Two wheat-paste posters displayed side-by-side on power transformers. The poster to the left features a pop-art stylized image of George Floyd, while the poster to the right bears the fully-capitalized words "BLACK LIVES MATTER" in bold white lettering on a simple black backdrop. Both wheatpastes feature clear weathering, with slight fraying to the Floyd portrait and a larger interior tear to the BLM poster.

White Flowers: SAY ALL OF THEIR NAMES
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.
Enclosed within a garland of black and white flowers are names of numerous Black people dead at the hands of police/ racist society. At the very bottom we see the name George Floyd.
Located at the George Floyd memorial, taped to window of Cup Foods.
