Difficult times. Uncomfortable conversations. Angry feelings.
All are heavy on the mind of citizens worldwide after an unarmed black man, George Floyd, was killed by a knee to the neck from a Minneapolis police officer.
It has hit home for so many people, including Mavericks’ CEO Cynt Marshall. She admitted it took time for her to process this latest episode of deadly violence involving a police officer.
“To think, my parents left Birmingham (Ala.) in March of 1960 because of how black people were treated and now it’s 60 years later and we are still talking about how black people are treated,” Marshall said.
