The trauma and tragedy of George Floyd’s murder must never leave us. It was a manifestation of a system that callously devalues the lives of Black people.

The jury's verdict delivers accountability for Derek Chauvin, but not justice for George Floyd. Real justice for him and too many others can only happen when we build a nation that fundamentally respects the human dignity of every person.https://twitter.com/AP/status/1384616336899313667 …

Our struggle now is about justice—not justice on paper, but real justice in which all Americans live their lives free of oppression. We must boldly root out the cancer of systemic racism and police violence against people of color.

Accountability can be a bitch for those who don't face it every day. Guilty, on all counts, as he should be.

IA It's not justice. Justice wld be George Floyd, Daunte Wright, Philando Castile, Tamir Rice, & too many others at home with their families. Accountability is better than allowing lynchings to be committed with impunity— as has too often been the case. But it's not justice.

Get your city to recognize that racism is a public health crisis and commit to action!

Thank you, this sums up my reaction as well. Accountability matters, but we'll never get justice for George Floyd. However, we can try to provide justice for those still living from now, forward.
