On May 25, 2020, African American George Floyd from Minneapolis died after a white officer jammed his knee into his neck for nearly nine minutes. Floyd's death was followed by a wave of mass protests throughout the United States, and later peaceful demonstrations escalated into clashes with law enforcement agencies and riots. Protesters set fire to the “Presidential Church” in Washington and desecrated St. Patrick’s Catholic Cathedral in New York. To pacify the protests, local authorities imposed curfews and involved the National Guard in many cities of America.
