Reporter: Attorney couldn t snap Chauvin out of his gaze 01:46 Minneapolis (CNN)While the nation paused for the reading of the guilty verdict against former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin and many rejoiced activists say now is a moment to keep moving forward in addressing racial injustice. It s a relief, but the celebration is premature, Rev. Jesse Jackson told CNN. We must break the backbone of legal lynching forever. Police killing people is getting away with legal lynching, Jackson said. So, we still have a lot of work to do, this is a first down, not a touchdown. The evidence of the work ahead can be found no more than ten miles away from the courthouse where Chauvin was convicted, Jackson said. In the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Center, burial plans are underway for Daunte Wright, a 20-year-old Black man who was fatally shot by a police officer during a traffic stop on April 11.
