After a highly publicized three-week trial, Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin has been found guilty of the murder of George Floyd in May 2020.
While the verdict has brought a sense of relief to some, mental health professionals say it’s still a difficult moment that brings up years of racial trauma and police brutality.
Last May, thousands took to the streets of Sacramento to decry Floyd’s death. In the aftermath of the 2018 police killing of South Sacramento resident Stephon Clark, people demonstrated for weeks in front of the Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office.
