Ex-NBA player Royce White organised a massive peaceful protest down Minneapolis interstate on Friday afternoon in response to the killing of George Floyd.
White sent out a text to his friends in the sports world to organize a small peaceful protest in Minneapolis. He was only expecting a few hundred people at most.
Floyd died in police custody this week and a video of his arrest - which has gone viral on social media showing a 44-year-old white officer, Derek Chauvin, subdued Floyd by placing his knee on his neck for a prolonged period until Floyd was rendered motionlessness.
