 At the time, as a journalism student at the University of Minnesota, I knew of the fraught relations between Minneapolis cops and communities of color. In later years, I watched from afar as the department resisted reforms and failed to shed its reputation for brutality against Black residents, exposing fissures in the city’s progressive facade. The video of Mr. Floyd’s death laid bare those troubles before the entire country.

The intersection where he took his final breath evolved into a memorial site that attracted throngs of people in the following weeks. Walking through the space last year, I happened to meet Lorraine Gurley, Mr. Nelson’s older sister. She wondered if Mr. Floyd would be alive if the city had reined in the police after her brother’s shooting.

Ananda Bates sings his song "We the People for Terrence Floyd" to the crowd gathered at George Floyd Square in Minneapolis after the announcement of a guilty verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial on April 20, 2021. Terrence is George's brother.

“There has been so much frustration, so much sorrow, so much loss and death in the Black community,” she told me. “We have to change the system.”

I thought of Ms. Gurley as I wrapped up my call with Mr. Thompson. He was moving through the raucous crowd outside the courthouse, and before we disconnected, I heard him boom out a greeting to someone.

“Guilty, guilty, guilty!”

“Black lives do matter”

Concrete barriers impede vehicles from entering the four-block area now known as George Floyd Square, and activists occupy checkpoints to keep out police. I visited the site on a cold, rainy afternoon in early April, and the absence of people and the presence of barricades evoked another desolate locale – the downtown courthouse three miles away.
