Disconnect

2215 E Lake St, Minneapolis, MN, USA

Two murals on plywood boards. The left has abstract images and designs surrounding the word "Respect." "You are Loved" is painted to the right of this. A second mural to the right says "Disconnect" in large letters. It is surrounded by various images that provide a summary of 2020 (as noted by the bottom left of the mural showing an image of a receipt that reads "Receipt for 2020."), including a vaccine needle, a pencil, musical notes, fire, the Wall Street sign, a virus, a TV, a phone, and a raised fist. Names of Black people murdered by police surround the images: Grant, Castile, Floyd, Brown, Rice, Taylor, Garner, Martin, Bland, and Gray. A tag reads Slick Nick in the right corner.
