MINNEAPOLIS For Zach Moore, a senior at South High School in Minneapolis, a banner that reads Justice for George Floyd means so much more. “During the uprising last year, we wanted to get more students involved in the protests and demanding justice,” said Moore.
Moore is a part of the group, “Student Movement Activists at South High.” After witnessing the aftermath of George Floyd’s death here in Minneapolis and now, the start of Derek Chauvin’s trial, he’s using his voice to spark change. “Build a movement for students to fight, for their needs, their demands,” said Moore.
