Over two months after the
death of George Floyd, on July
3rd, demonstrations were
ongoing. With demonstrations
and protests having occurred
in over 40% of the counties in
the United States with reports
suggesting that up to 26
million Americans took part in
the demonstrations over the
past 3 months. This made the
demonstrations the largest in
US history.
FEBRUARY 23 - While jogging, 25-Year-Old Ahmaud Marquez Arbery, an unarmed African
American man, was pursued and gunned down by three white men, simply because according to
them, he had “looked suspicious”. The Glynn County Police Department was advised not to make
any arrests by the district attorney’s office and no arrest were made until more than 70 days
later.
