Hundreds gathered outside North Central University in Minneapolis Thursday afternoon as family and friends of George Floyd held a memorial inside. As they left the chapel, Mel Reeves, Toshira Garraway and a number of local activists turned and spoke to the crowd. We are going to keep him alive, Reeves said. We plan on making this system choke on the name of George Floyd. Photos by Kori Suzuki 21. Faces of individual protesters have been obscured.
