The Rev. Al Sharpton, founder and president of the National Action Network, delivered the eulogy Wednesday, and invited Harris onstage for a surprise address. Harris also called on Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, saying: “Joe Biden will sign it. We should not delay and we will not be denied. It is non negotiable.”
“We don't care how long, but I can tell you one thing: those of you that keep voting against that bill, we're going to vote against you,” he pledged. “And he knew if he could just get mother that they would quit beating him and quit stomping on him,” he continued. “All he wanted to do was get home.” Nichols grew up in Sacramento, California, and loved the San Francisco 49ers. He came to Memphis just before the coronavirus pandemic and got stuck. But he was fine with it because he was with his mother, RowVaughn Wells, and they were incredibly close, she said. He even had her name tattooed on his arm.' sisters, brothers and parents shared their memories at the funeral of the Black man who died after being beaten by Memphis police officers.
