Coverage of the death of George Floyd not only prompted global protests for police reform but was the catalyst for Peter & Phil's Courageous Conversations podcast nearly a year ago. On April 21, 2020, Derek Chauvin, the policeman who pinned George Flloyd down to the ground for nine minutes and twenty-nine seconds, was found guilty of his murder on all three counts.  This week's discussion is not only about that verdict, but the ones that didn't come before. Was justice served?  Please join us for another Courageous Conversation! Like & Share!
