George Floyd Mural

George Floyd Mural

West Portobello Beach, Edinburgh, Scotland

This mural was photographed on the western side of Portobello Beach in Edinburgh, Scotland. The mural is centered on George Floyd's name next to a tombstone with RIP and his date of death. The mural includes the names of two of the police officers involved in the arrest and murder of George Floyd. Their names sit above images of pigs with crossed out eyes (presumably representing dead police officers) along with the acronym ACAB (all cops are bastards).

This wall previously had anti-racist graffiti in opposition to the treatment of refugees by the British government, though most of the examples of street art on the wall are tags.
