NSS Weekly: A Look at Minneapolis Six Years After the Murder of George Floyd

from North Star Stories · host AMPERS

This week, six years after the murder of George Floyd, we take you back to the Minneapolis neighborhood to hear how the community is coping and report on the progress that's finally being made to create a permanent memorial at George Floyd Square. Then, we reflect on how the incident changed the way local media covers stories from Minnesota's diverse communities. And we'll have a conversation about how art can be used as a force for healing and moving forward.-----Executive Producer: Victor PalominoProducer: Katharine DeCelleAnchor: Gracie J.Reader scripting: Xan Holston, Tracie Wells Collier, Victor PalominoFact checking: Victor Palomino, Joel GlaserEditorial support: Emily KrumbergerProduction Coordinator: Britt AamodtMixing & mastering: Chris HarwoodImage: Construction soon begins on George Floyd Square [credit: Katharine DeCelle]-----For the latest episode drops and updates, follow us on social media. instagram.com/ampersradio/instagram.com/northstarstoriesmn/Never miss a beat.
