When George Floyd died in 2020, the whole country erupted with cries of systemic racism and white supremacy. Floyd's life came to an end while being restrained by a Minneapolis police officer in May 2020. The incident sparked widespread protests across the United States and even the world, with demonstrators calling for an end to police brutality. The Black Lives Matter movement played a prominent role in the protests, drawing attention to the issue of police violence against black people and advocating for policy changes to address it. We later learned that Floyd had a long rap sheet of violence and crime (even toward innocent pregnant women). Now we're faced with yet another case of so-called racism, this time with a homeless man in New York City.
