Essential Work alongside anti-policing graffiti and Minnesota love poster

705 West Lake Street, Minneapolis, MN, USA

A black-and-white poster by Labor Camp with four firsts, two black and two white, raised in protest and emerging from a bed of plants and flowers. Large text below reads "ESSENTIAL WORK" indicating the essential nature of protest and racial unity. Small text above reads "Covid-19 Labor Camp Report | May 31, 2020 | BLM." Multiple prints of this poster are adhered to plywood covering a storefront. There is also graffiti reading "ACAB," "Tuck Frump," and "fuck the police." Additionally, there is a small poster by OBE2TALL with hands making a heart, holding the state of Minnesota with a QR code. There is a small poster that reads "Winston Smith Was Assassinated."
