Hello, and thanks forjoining us. President biden has urged the us congress to pass a Policing Reform Bill quickly in memory of george floyd. After meeting mr floyds relatives at the white house exactly a year after he was killed by a white policeman, mr biden said both accountability and trust were needed in the justice system. Our north america correspondent nick bryant reports from minneapolis. Taking a knee in the place that george floyd was killed a symbol of whats become a global struggle. An act of remembrance that lasted nine minutes and 29 seconds the duration of his murder. Chanting one, two, three, four Police Violence no more the march for Racial Justice must often seem like a never ending journey, with milestones along the way but no endpoint in sight. Chanting george floyd, george floyd thats certainly how it feels a year on from the murder of george floyd. Protesters are angry they havent seen more change. We are hunted in america just for being black, and thats not good.
