Artists Honor George Floyd with Mural in Minneapolis

A Powerful Tribute to a Life Taken Too Soon

Local artists come together after tragedy

In the wake of the tragic death of George Floyd, artists in Minneapolis have come together to create a powerful mural in his honor. The mural, located on the side of a building at 38th Street and Chicago Avenue, depicts Floyd's face and the words "I Can't Breathe," which became a rallying cry for protesters after his death. The mural is a powerful reminder of the injustice that Floyd suffered and the need for change.

The mural was created by a group of local artists, including painter Xena Goldman and muralist Greta McLain. Goldman said that she was inspired to create the mural after seeing the video of Floyd's death. "I was so heartbroken and angry," she said. "I wanted to do something to honor his memory and to show that we will not tolerate this kind of violence."

McLain said that she hopes the mural will inspire people to take action. "We need to keep fighting for justice," she said. "We need to make sure that George Floyd's death was not in vain."

The mural has become a popular destination for people to visit and pay their respects to Floyd. Visitors have left flowers, candles, and signs in front of the mural. The mural is a powerful reminder of the need for justice and an end to police brutality.
