George Floyd was a 46-year-old African-American man who was brutally murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Monday. As per reports, the police officer had kneeled on George Floyd’s neck even after he pleaded that he could not breathe and then stopped moving. In a video that surfaced on the internet, the police officer is seen ignoring Floyd's cries.

George Floyd’s death has caused a worldwide stir and has rounded discussions on the subject of racism once again. Ever since the news has been out, many protestors have been gathering in Minneapolis at the spot where George Floyd was killed. The police officer, Derek Chauvin has also been fired, as informed by Mayor Jacob Frey.

While talking about the same on social media, Frey added, “Being Black in America should not be a death sentence. For five minutes, we watched a white officer press his knee into a Black man's neck. Five minutes. When you hear someone calling for help, you're supposed to help. This officer failed in the most basic, human sense”.
