George Floyd s family members appeared at a march in Minneapolis this weekend as activists plan events to mark one year since his murder by a police officer.
On Sunday, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, Floyd s family members and loved ones well as families of other Black men killed by police attended the Minneapolis rally, according to the Associated Press. Tuesday will mark one year since the 46-year-old was killed on May 25, 2020, when former officer Derek Chauvin pinned his knee to Floyd s neck for more than nine minutes.
