Six Years Later, Legacy Lives On

Six years after George Floyd’s death, his uncle Selwyn Jones revisits the trauma and transformation sparked by that fateful Monday — now marked by both grief and resilience. Watching the news unfold, Jones didn’t recognize his nephew at first — it took his sister to confirm it was George, or Perry, as he was known to family. As the anniversary falls on the same day of the week as the original tragedy, family members like aunt Angela Harrelson reflect on the vivid, unchanging pain of that day. They acknowledge how little has changed in the fight for justice — yet they remain steadfast, calling for unity and deeper societal shifts. Harrelson envisions George Floyd Square as a sacred, non-commercialized pedestrian plaza that still uplifts local businesses — a vision now aligned with upcoming street redesigns. The day serves as a rallying cry: to honor George’s life, keep his legacy alive, and never stop demanding change — because the work is far from over.
