Philonise Floyd, whose brother George was killed in Minneapolis police custody on May 25, addressed a House committee today in a hearing on policing.
Philonise Floyd, whose brother George was killed in Minneapolis police custody on May 25, sparking worldwide outrage,In his emotional opening statement, Floyd said burying his brother, whom he called Perry, on Tuesday was"the hardest thing I've ever had to do."
And me being the big brother now is why I’m here today. To do what Perry always did for us – to take care of the family and others. I couldn’t take care of George the day he was killed, but maybe by speaking with you today, I can help make sure that his death isn’t in vain. To make sure that he is more than another face on a t-shirt. More than another name on a list that won’t stop growing.
I’m tired. I’m tired of the pain I’m feeling now and I’m tired of the pain I feel every time another black person is killed for no reason. I’m here today to ask you to make it stop. Stop the pain. Stop us from being tired.
