Quite interesting

Edit: This post does not try to tarnish him neither does it justify his killing.

It’s just interesting to me that he’s someone Billions of people have seen before and probably didn’t realize.

Doesn’t matter really if he’s a Banker or a porn star.

Hello @donbabajay,

Since you stated that your post was neither meant to tarnish his image nor justify his killing, would you mind including the fact that despite that porn video, he left an impactful legacy of positive communal change. In fact christianity today (a reputable christian nationwide publication) has this to say about him:


"The rest of the country knows George Floyd from several minutes of cell phone footage captured during his final hours. But in Houston’s Third Ward, they know Floyd for how he lived for decades—a mentor to a generation of young men and a “person of peace” ushering ministries into the area"

...

“The platform for us to reach that neighborhood and the hundreds of people we reached through that time and up to now was built on the backs of people like Floyd,” he told Christianity Today.


So indeed by his actions, by his legacy, he has had saintly impact! Yes I say that as a christian. You yourself, what impact have you had on your community? Can your christian, muslim or whatever community you identify with write such a glowing review of your life today? Maybe when you dig information about people, do a comprehensive check.

I thank God we still have people who reason like you. The Americans foolish Nigerians carry for head don't even know they exist. They probably don't even know if Nigeria is a name of a country or an animal. And even more foolishly, American politics thread is ever live on Nairaland for black slaves to go wankk on. Rubbish and ingredients!

Why do you call Nigerians slave?

Yet no body is talking about the herdsmen killings and SARs brutality?

What are you doing about it to make changes?

Simple. They behave like one.

I am playing my part in my own little way by awakening people consciousness.
