ACAB Graffiti

ACAB Graffiti

1811 University Ave NE, Minneapolis, MN, USA

The acronym ACAB written on the side of an electrical box. An attempt has been made to cover it up but the original letters have either shown through or the paint used to cover it up has been scrubbed away to reveal the original graffiti. As can be seen by the paint above the letters, much of the graffiti in this area has been covered up or erased. This electrical box is located across the street from Minneapolis Police Officers Federation. While the graffiti located on street signs and poles around the street have been cleaned, graffiti within the caged parking lot and on the plywood boards of the Federation building is still present. Stickers and graffiti less than a block away are still present and have not been erased.
