Quincy Mason Floyd, George Floyd’s son, paid an emotional visit to the location where his father died at the hands of a police officer in Minneapolis, telling the crowd that he wants “justice for what’s going on right now” and that “no man or woman should be without their father.”
“This is so emotional,” said a visibly distraught Quincy on Wednesday, who thanked the protesters around the country for demonstrating against police brutality and for reform on behalf of his father.
George Floyd, a Black man, died last month after a white police officer, Derek Chauvin, knelt on his neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds outside of convenience store Cup Foods.
Quincy told a crowd of supporters and reporters that he and his family want “justice for what’s going on right now.” He was joined by civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who pleaded with Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison to provide justice and charge all of the officers present at the time of Floyd’s death.
“Change is going to come in the tragic killing of George Floyd, and I proclaim with his son as my witness, that change starts today,” Crump told the crowd. “We are confident that Attorney General Keith Ellison is working feverishly to do the right thing.”
