As talk about relocating the George Floyd memorial continues, the corner where he was killed by police has evolved to become less a place of mourning and more of a place of celebration—a celebration of community and a celebration of the memory of George Floyd. And, there is a clear focus on the long-overlooked understanding of the need to change cultural attitudes toward people of color.
On Saturday afternoons until Sept. 5, people are welcome to visit and to share a summer afternoon at ReImagine 38th Street, at 38th Street and Chicago Avenue and to join the celebration.
People come to see the memorial of flowers with its votive candles and teddy bears, admire pieces of street art, share a meal with friends, browse tents selling BLM T-shirts, stop by an outdoor food shelf or join in a pick-up basketball game. There’s still time to become part of this unique experience. It’s something you will be able to tell your
grandkids.
