THE NEW YORK TIMES.
George Floyd’s death energized a movement. He
will be buried in Houston today.
After more than two weeks of demonstrations and anguished calls for racial
justice, the man whose death gave rise to an international movement, and
whose last words — “I can’t breathe” — have become a rallying cry, will be
laid to rest on Tuesday at a private funeral in Houston.

George Floyd, 46, will then be buried in a grave next to his mother’s.

The service, scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. local time at the Fountain of Praise
church, comes after five days of public memorials in Minneapolis, North
Carolina and Houston and two weeks after a Minneapolis police officer was
captured on video pressing his knee into Mr. Floyd’s neck for nearly nine
minutes.
