We’re here again.
Almost six years after former police officer Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd in Minneapolis, this city sits on a tinder box of sorrow and outrage. And activism.
It has a new face. With all the same pain. The victim is a White woman this time. Her name is Renee Nicole Good. She was 37. And a mother of three children.
“We are completely retraumatized – people are deeply retraumatized,” former Minneapolis City Council President Andrea Jenkins said. “It’s like literally the same people, just six blocks from where George Floyd was murdered. It’s the same community, the same people, and the whole city.”
Good was fatally shot in her car on Jan. 7 by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer . It happened not far from where Floyd was killed.
