A year later, his injustice has continued to shake the nation and the world and it is our intention that the sacrifice of his life, is not in vain and does result in justice, saving other lives and ultimately change the world,” says Shareeduh Tate, President of The George Floyd Foundation and George’s 1st cousin.
