What has been revealed in the trial of Derek Chauvin?
The criminal trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, charged with the murder of George Floyd, has provided a glimpse into the grim reality of American society.
George Floyd’s story is one American workers are tragically familiar with. Floyd grew up in Houston’s infamous Third Ward, one of the most impoverished communities in the city.
