Mourners gathered by the thousands in cities around the country Thursday night to remember George Floyd, following a private memorial service in Minneapolis for the 46-year-old black man whose death in police custody sparked widespread protests against police violence and systemic racism.

“At the end of the day, my brother’s gone, but the Floyd name lives on,” Floyd’s brother, Terrence Floyd, told a sea of supporters at a rally in Brooklyn. “I thank God for y’all.”

Later on Thursday, Buffalo police suspended two officers over a viral video of police seriously injuring a 75-year-old peaceful protester. After other videos showed New York City police arresting a man delivering food after curfew and violently confronting journalists on the street, Mayor Bill de Blasio promised changes.

I THINK MY ANSWER IS HELPFUL FOR YOU

Answer 2

George floyds murder is an indicator of the unaccepting, biased and stereotypical society we live in. The Americans former president was Barack Obama who was not only a great man who stood up for himself but was also black. Even though they elected him and “let” him help them by making a few changes in their society they didn’t warm up to the idea of “black” people. I completely support George floyds actions as if I were in his place unarmed and not doings any harm to anyone yet having a gun pointed at my head that too by a police man I too would be terrified. I think there is not much I can do if I were in his place I to would a) ask for help for passerby’s and b)I would beg them to stop/surrender.
I hope this answer helps you please feel free to ask any more questions!!
