Title

Call To Action: 3 More Arrests

Coverage

Across from Falcon Arms Apartments.

Description

A white tagboard sign located at the Philando Castile Memorial in Falcon Heights MN. It reads: "Call our MN businesses and ask them to demand (pressure) 3 more arrests, Thao, Lang, Kueng" "black lives matter" also written in smaller letters in upper right corner. The rest of the sign has contact information and names of leadership for the following companies: Target, EcoLab, Sleep Number, 3M, Best Buy, General Mills, and Cargill.

As of June 19, 2020, Target and Best Buy have made Juneteenth a company holiday for the first time.
Note: this sign must predate the June 3rd charges against the other three officers involved in the killing of George Floyd. Prior to June 3rd, there was widespread public disbelief that only officer Chauvin was charged. This sign is also notable for being a call to action.
