The Floyd/Chauvin verdict is very important, and I believe Chauvin will be found guilty, but

it is just the beginning. There are countless other cases and ongoing injustices. It is my hope
that a guilty verdict will be a watershed moment in the struggle for racial equality. More than
ever, young people are aware of the injustice inherent in society.
I believe we will be happy tonight, but the struggle will not be over. Maybe in another
generation when some of the old bigots die off.
