Three Minneapolis police officers stood still, and almost silent, as Derek Chauvin, another police officer, had his knee on the neck of George Floyd.
It lasted 8 minutes and 46 seconds – the time it took Derek Chauvin to kill George Floyd.
The death of this Black man will be etched in the minds of Americans and people all over the world, forever.
Gregg Popovich, coach of the San Antonio Spurs, said, “For White people to see how nonchalant, how casual, just how everyday-going-about-his job, so much so that he could just put his left hand in his pocket, wriggle his knee around a little to teach this person some sort of lesson and that it was his right and duty to do it in his mind.
White people must recognize that justice for Black people cannot be achieved without radical changes in the structure of our society.
