The verdict was not what I expected. I didn’t think former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin would be convicted on all three charges for the death of George Floyd. I wasn’t sure his actions would be legally labeled “murder,” both because of the details of Minnesota law and because we’ve seen the same scenario so many times before without this outcome. Anycharges let alone murder charges, let alone murder convictions are incredibly rare when police officers kill.
But here we are, with Chauvin found guilty on all counts after just 10 hours of jury deliberation. The Twin Cities were largely quiet Tuesday night. No helicopters hovering overhead, no need for the plywood that reappeared on business windows in recent weeks. There were celebrations in Minneapolis, by the courthouse and at the intersection where Floyd died, and triumphant honks sounded on the main road near my house the moment the verdict was read. Everyone, it seems, heaved a sigh of relief.
“Tell me a story.”
Most of us never say these words past childhood, yet we never stop seeking out narrative threads. Indeed, we make sense of the world and one another through stories. We allow stories, whether tales from children, newly released audiobooks, or podcasts, to wash over us as we scrub the dishes or drive our daily commutes. We weave them into our mornings, afternoons, and evenings.
If you find yourself longing for story but feel overwhelmed by the number of podcasts available, expand your listening horizons with one of these series. The topics vary, the styles and formats range widely, but one idea guides each show: When we’re exposed to the stories of others, we hear echoes of our experiences. Life makes sense in those moments we detect a whisper in our earbuds, saying, “You are not alone.”
