On this edition of Culture Minute, we discuss a Minneapolis Black man, George Floyd, was killed by 4 police officers while being detained. One officer held his knee on Floyd's neck for nearly 10 minutes eventually suffocating him to death after Floyd repeatedly begged for help and said he could not breathe. The 4 officers have been fired. This comes soon after a video of a white woman in New York gets caught on video giving a false accusation to police alleging assault on a Black man after he politely told her to put a leash on her dog.
