Historical note
After the murder of George Floyd by police, the Uptown Artist's Association invited artists from across the Twin Cities to paint murals and other art on boarded up windows of businesses. As the barricades began being taken down, Weinstein wanted to document the art, so he began to take photos, eventually amassing over 100.
Jack Weinstein is a member of the Haverford class of 2023, where he was a politicial science major.
