I spot MLK III, Amy Klobuchar, MN Governor, Ludacris (“Luda!”) at #GeorgeFloydMemorial .
Minneapolis mayor, Jacob Frey, there.
Kevin Hart, T.I., Jesse Jackson...
Attorney Benjamin Crump announced the Floyd family members as Rev Al Sharpton looked on.
Rev Al now dragging He-who-shall-not-be-named, about his using a Bible as a prop, stunt.
Rev Al now dragging Marmelade Hitler for asking for the first Black president’s birth certificate. #GetYourKneeOffOurKneck
MN Governor is on his feet, clapping.
Rev Al says when he sees White people marching in solidarity with Blacks, in Germany (!), he knows it’s a different time, it’s a different season, it’s time for accountability in the criminal justice system. #GeorgeFloydMemorial
Rev Al says he’ll be organizing with George Floyd’s and other families over the next few months.
I believe he’s ending now with George Floyd’s calling out for his mother before his death. (Mr. Floyd’s mother is deceased.) To paraphrase, Rev Al says Mr. Floyd’s mother is calling him home. That’s Faith. #Homecoming
Members of the Congressional Black Caucus are there.
Tyrese, Master P, Will Packer, Tiffany Haddish, Hezekiah Walker, are there. #GeorgeFloydHomecoming
If you’ve never been to a Black funeral, it can be much more like a celebration. I will never forget my aunt Georgia Mae’s funeral. We were distraught yet our cousins who’d traveled from TX and LA to sing had us uplifted. I’ll never forget it. #Homecoming ...
Rev Al is now asking for everyone to stand for eight minutes, and to think about what #GeorgeFloyd was going through, narrating his own death. It’s time to bring about a new season.
Now comes the benediction as the family begins its departure. Rev Al mentions #GeorgeFloyds family will travel to NC and then to Houston where Mr. Floyd will be laid to rest. It has been reported Joe Biden will attend the service in HOU, yet I’m not sure if it’s been confirmed.
A touching begin to #GeorgeFloyd ‘s homegoing. <eot> #GeorgeFloydMemorial
