Yesterday, I led a private memorial service at George Floyd’s graveside, along with his family, in Houston, Texas. Once that was over, we visited the housing project where Floyd and his siblings grew up.
Half a decade after Floyd was taken from them, they were keen, as are we, to ensure his life and legacy will not be forgotten – and to remind the world why the fight for police accountability continues.
