Someone composed a picture that announced the 2nd-degree-murder charges and Instagrammed it: Tamika D. Mallory on Instagram: “MN Attorney General has increased charges against Derek Chauvin to 2nd degree murder and now ALL the officers have been charged and arrested in the murder of #GeorgeFloyd. We do not yet know what the other 3 have been charged with. This is NOT enough, we need CONVICTIONS. Do not let anyone tell you that protest and organizing does not work. It works. Stay loud. This is a marathon folks, stay focused. We are winning, together. We are feeling grateful for all the organizers, protesters, organizations and supporters in every corner of this country - especially our Minneapolis fam. George Floyd’s murder will not be in vain. Back to work. The officers who murdered #BreonnaTaylor still have not been arrested or charged.”

Left Voice on Instagram: “Shops in Manhattan are boarding up their storefronts. But workers doing the job show their solidarity with the protests, using the planks to echo the chants.
The ruling class divides and oppresses the working class over the work, but we fight back with solidarity.”
