Rock Hill NAACP
Moments after the verdict was read live on TV, people in Rock Hill gathered for a moment of prayer, reflection and meditation for the Floyd family.
Norma Gray, president of the Rock Hill NAACP, was at the gathering and said the jury's decision would not hold any weight if the country does not build on the momentum. However, she said she hopes it is a step toward trust.
"It's significant because at some point you have to be able to trust that there can be equality," Gray said. "And sometimes that's a difficult message to convey when all you see is inequality."
