SCOTUS nominee Barrett says George Floyd death had ‘very personal’ impact for family
Description
October 13, 2020
Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett on Tuesday said what happened to George Floyd, a Black man who died in May after a police officer knelt on his neck for more than eight minutes, was "very personal" for her family, mentioning that two of her children are Black. She said she wept with her daughter Vivian, who was adopted from Haiti, in Barrett's room and said up until that point they had the benefit of "growing up in a cocoon where they have not yet experienced hatred or violence." She also went on to say that racism "persists in our country."
