- written in memory of George Floyd (October 14,1973—May 25,2020)

Americans are marching and protesting
against police violence in city after city
following the murder of George Floyd.
They are chanting "No justice, no peace!
No justice, no peace! " and they have reason.
"This is not ablack and white problem, "
one protestor said."It's an American problem
because the police can't police themselves."
