Tyrone Edwards is calling for a conviction and justice after the death of George Floyd, which has sparked a wave of protests throughout Minneapolis.
The Etalk host also made an emotional plea for people to get informed about the different kinds of institutional racism especially those that could exist in "your own life."
Edwards said it is up to everyone to speak up about racism because "your silence is killing me."

I think this guy is way overestimating the amount of racism that actually exists.
I’ve yet to see anyone justify the cops actions, no one thinks this is right.
Yeah wait till their court hearing a couple of them have a history of excessive force problems already and he must be mentally ill to do that so the city hires deranged thugs and hesitates to hold them accountable. That’s not the only precinct that enables that behaviour either.
@Anna Vajda What do you mean “hesitates to hold them accountable”? The FBI is involved, that’s kind of a big deal if you aren’t aware
@D Smith oh big D
This is stupid!
here for u here in Chicago brother
Are you going to loot and burn down your city to stop racism or something?
If you can talk you can breathe. Zero evidence the knee on the back of his neck suffocated him.
bad take
Tyrone Shoelaces..
I’ve heard this before, feel familiar!? Well it shouldn’t be. Protect and serve is what we expect, no exceptions. Murder in the first degree and nothing less is acceptable. Prayers don’t do it anymore. Justice is demanded.
They got the guy and he is most likely to get 25 years in prison…
However that rioting in Minneapolis is something that should also be discussed
Burn a city down for a conviction. He’s 100% wrong and will be found guilty
so what about the thousands of peoples lives that have been destroyed with the riots and looting ..
Never justified .. either of these events
Does anybody else have some of their comments shadow banned on here?
