The media ignored a mini-storming of the Iowa State Capitol building. Misbehavior was livestreamed by Cortez Rice from Minneapolis, the nephew of George Floyd.
“This is the new Jim Crow,” Rice said. “If we don’t put our foot on this sh t’s neck, this will be happening everywhere,” he said.
After putting graffiti on the steps of the Iowa state capitol with chalk, the BLM protestors moved inside the building. They tried to perform a socially distanced “die-in” for 9 minutes and 29 seconds, the length of time that George Floyd was held on the ground for.
“Where was this energy on January 6th with the insurrectionists,” one woman shouted.
