These are the most active and used #tags from Twitter trends for today.

The black man identified as George Floyd was afterwards confirmed dead after he was taken to the hospital as a result of the manhandling and ill-treatment he got from the white cop. This development has again triggered the call for equality between blacks and white across the world and especially in the United States.
Twitter users asked many questions that have kept begging for answers. They asked what the of offence Floyd committed that could warrant such treatment that led to his unfortunate death. Some of the last words heard from Floyd while he was being kneeled upon includes “ Please I Can’t breathe. My stomach hurts, my neck hurts. Everything hurts. They’re going to kill me.”
The Minneapolis Cop who was seen kneeling on the victim has been identified as Derek Chauvin, and four officers have been fired since the video surfaced on social media.
Though the case is currently being investigated, the life of Floyd has been wasted in a case linked to racism which has been such a huge source of concern for a while.
