Activists marched from Peters Park to Fields Corner Saturday to demand the conviction of former police officer Derek Chauvin for the killing of George Floyd last May.
Dozens of protesters gathered before 1 p.m. at Peters Park two days before the trial of Derek Chauvin, who has been charged with second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in the killing of George Floyd last May.
“We're not going back to that period of time where people just look the other way, and these deaths were swept under the rug,” organizer Brock Satter said. “We need to demand these cases be reopened, these officers and all these officials be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
