Biden, Harris slam 'systemic racism' in US, say Chauvin guilty verdict is 'giant step' toward racial justice
Fox News
President Biden and Vice President Harris on Tuesday America has a "long history of systemic racism," calling it a "stain on the nation's soul," while saying the guilty verdict in the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin "can be a giant step forward in the march toward justice in America," but one that is "too rare" to deliver "basic accountability" for Black Americans.
Floyd’s death sparked nationwide protests last spring and summer over police brutality against minorities and systemic racism. Chauvin, 45, was charged with second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. After the jury announced the verdict, Chauvin’s bail was immediately revoked and he was led away with hands cuffed behind his back.More Related News
