ince George Floyd’s death at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer, Durham residents have led more than a dozen peaceful demonstrations and protests calling for an end to racial injustices. Many of these events celebrated and mourned the lives of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery, among other countless Black lives taken. Other events pivoted to politics, advocating for the reallocation of funds away from the Durham Police Department and toward resources like more social services, as well as other calls for impactful reform. Here are a few images from these events.
