New york seeing gathering crowds with calls of another curfew tonight. There have been protests throughout the weekend. When you look at this right here, something youre certainly aware of if you go online or watch the news, many of these protests were peaceful. Many were largely orderly. And we have been reporting that out as a news organization, along with, of course, some of the very regrettable incidents which included violence and looting. Tonight, well give you the full facts, the clashes with police, as well as the political protests. And we begin right now with what the family of george floyd is demanding. This is a time to listen to them. Youre looking at footage of mr. Floyds brother when he took a knee with other protesters this afternoon in minneapolis. You can hear the chants.

Terrence floyd will be present and other family members will be present.

If you want to chant peacefully, you can do so. Dont do it in the name of george floyd.

Im thankful now we can have a voice and turn something negative to a conversation that can lead to positivity. The bible says in the book of isaiah 1 and 17, to be able to teach the oppressors, to be a voice for the voiceless and to be able to seek justice for the windows. Thats what were going to continue to do as we go forward and the fight for justice

Well, i mean, its symptom attic of a much larger problem that, unfortunately, exists between police and members of certain communities, primarily minority communities, communities of color, africanamerican communities. Also, it also highlighted a gap between police and young people. So its a combination of a lot of different factors. Let me go to gene on this. Its going to go in the dictionary, something people will be talking about weeks, months, years.
