I Can't Breathe

On May 25, 2020, an African-American man, George Floyd was killed by a police officer in Minneapolis. This is just one of the many incidents in which black people have been brutalised and killed by the police in the US. So, as expected, it has sparked global outrage, even leading to the arrest of the officer. This piece recollects that event, pointing out "I CAN'T BREATHE", which Floyd repeated said as the officer choked him with his knee. It is a sad phrase that we have heard over and again in cases of police brutality against African-Americans. As a black person, I am deeply touched by this. Part of the proceeds from this NFT will go to the Black Lives Matter movement. #JusticeforGeorgeFloyd
