The death of George Floyd has sparked protests and conversations around the country.
Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, died on Memorial Day shortly after being arrested for a nonviolent act in Minneapolis. Video of the arrest shows white police officer Derek Chauvin with his knee on Floyd’s neck as Floyd says he can’t breathe and pleads for help.
