Joe Biden says he has spoken with the family of George Floyd and calls for Americans to confront racism: “the very soul of America is at stake.”
He also drew a contrast with President Donald Trump, who drew fire for early morning tweets that said where there was looting, there would be shooting.
Biden’s address comes days after the 46 year old Floyd was seen on video being pinned down by a Minneapolis police officer with his knee to Floyd’s throat, which ultimately led to his death.
