2 years later, Minnesotans gather to remember George Floyd

MINNEAPOLIS — The two-year anniversary of George Floyd's killing began quietly and with a cold rain Wednesday morning at the corner where he died.

"I'm concerned about the rain — I think that will probably deter some people, but I'm really hoping that we have a good turnout," said Maria Bertrand, who came to the corner to pay her respects.

Bertrand works down the street for United Renters for Justice, a tenant advocacy group, and believes it's important for people to keep showing up to the area at 38th Street and Chicago Avenue, now memorialized and known as George Floyd Square.
