The day after police murdered George Floyd—before the fires, before the tear gas, before the broken glass and boarded stores—protesters marched peacefully through the streets of South Minneapolis, pleading for an end to racist policing. So much has changed since then, but here in the Slag Glass City we honor this heart and spirit of the resistance. Thanks to Minneapolis resident Don Samuels for allowing us to share his photographs of that day.

Here in the Slag Glass City, we’re looking back in history to see what led up to the riots over countless black deaths.

I’m sure I’m not the only one with a heavy heart this week. Last night, unable to sleep, I turned to my sketchbook which led to this sketch and to prayer and the hope that the anger and frustration around us will lead to change. #RIPGeorgeLloyd #workforjustice https://www.instagram.com/p/CA1Z39_nwEb/?igshid=1j1ksebezur2w
