California Governor Gavin Newsom spoke out to protesters during a Monday press conference in which he emphasized that he and other leaders have to 'do better'
During a Monday press conference, Newsom discussed the ongoing protests taking place across the nation following the death of George Floyd in Minnesota, stressing that he, along with other leaders, have to"do better."
“So often we try to meet the moment with rhetoric, we feign resolve …. And yet over and over and over again, we hear the names of those lives that have been lost, have been taken, justice that was never advanced, and communities continuing to feel like they’re not only being torn asunder but not being listened to," Newsom said during a Monday press conference.
In response to Floyd's death, protests have left parts of the city a grid of broken windows, burned-out buildings and ransacked stores, something Newsom stated "we as a society need to call that out." Newsom went on to express his hopes that he, along with other leaders, can prove that they can handle things differently. "People have lost patience because they haven't seen progress so if you're out there saying, 'people need to be patient,' consider that people have lost patience for a reason.They have been told that over and over and over again."
