The mass protests across the country in recent days in response to the death of George Floyd have also inspired people, charitable groups, community bail funds and Democratic candidates.
Floyd died on May 25 after Derek Chauvin, a white police officer, pinned him to the ground with his knee press on his neck for nearly nine minutes.
At Crusader press time the Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announced charges against the other three police officers involved in the arrest and subsequent death of George Floyd.
In South Bend, about 75 protesters on Tuesday evening marched from Chocolate Cafe to the South Bend Police Station, carrying signs for justice in the death of George Floyd.
The crowd reportedly sat silently for nine minutes on the lawn east of the Police Station entrance, the time George Floyd endured a knee to his neck during the May 25 incident in Minneapolis.
