At lunchtime today, around 100 citizens gathered on the street in front of the Greenwood City Hall to protest the murder of George Floyd.

The protest drew a mixture of all sorts of people, black and white, meeting together peacefully. Robert Wilson is to be commended for organizing the protest.

The street was blocked off to traffic, and Greenwood police officers were present.

Mr. Wilson opened with brief remarks, followed by Mayor Carolyn Mcadams, Council President Ronnie Stevenson, and Police Chief Jody Bradley, along with State Senator David Jordan and Charles McCoy.
