After the verdict was read in the murder case of George Floyd, Greenvilleâs Will Hobdy said that he saw it as a possible step forward, in improving race relations in America.
On Tuesday, a Minnapolis jury found former police office Derek Chauvin guilty of three charges, including two for the murder of Floyd. For activists, like Hobdy, who is president of the Greenville Branch of the NAACP, it was a moment that will not soon be forgotten.
