Houston Closes Roads Ahead Of George Floyd March, Funeral Details Released
Marches scheduled for tuesday.
This is an honor and a tribute to someone who grew up in Houstons Third Ward. So this is a salute to George, and an acknowledgement that he should not have died the way he did, Turner said.

Prefered with no commentary other than pointing out names of who's who.
Wiping Trump off media for just one day, would honor of George Floyd.
