Conviction of Derek Chauvin for George Floyd’s Murder Does Not Alleviate Need for Policing Reforms

The conviction represents accountability but not justice.

George’s Floyd’s murder must serve as one more catalyst to bring about systemic change and dismantle the white supremacy that drives deadly policing in the United States.

In the wake of this conviction, so much...
