George Floyd
George Floyd was murdered by Derek Chauvin, a Minneapolis police officer, on May 25, 2020 after being suspected of using a counterfeit twenty-dollar bill. Chauvin knelt on Floyd's neck and back for just under ten minutes, which caused a lack of oxygen resulting in his death. On Tuesday, June 2, 2020, Jay-Z and Roc Nation sponsored full-page ads in newspapers across the country to honor his life and bring awareness to his murder. The ad was signed by Jay-Z as well as leadership from advocacy organizations like the Women's Global Initiative, Until Freedom, and the Innocence Project. The ad was also signed by the parents of Botham Jean, DJ Henry, and Antwon Rose II, three Black men previously murder by law enforcement.
