One year following George Floyd’s Death, woman says the pain is still very real for Green Bay’s African American community
GREEN BAY (NBC 26) — It’s been a year since George Floyd’s death which sparked Black Lives Matter protests across the country.While the initial protests and marches largely faded, the push for justice has remained.“Obviously there was a small celebration with the prosecution of Derek Chauvin which we weren’t really 100% sure on even though we all knew it was murder, just because of how our criminal justice system works, but we still don’t have that sense of relief yet, that sense of safety,”said Hannah Beauchamp-Pope.
Hannah Beauchamp-Pope is a student at UW-Green Bay and the vice president of the Black Student Union.
