On May 25, 2020, Christopher Martin, then 18 years old, was working at a store in Minneapolis.
A customer came in to buy cigarettes and Chris believed that he paid with a counterfeit $20 bill. Chris reported this to another employee who went out to talk to the customer.
The police were called.
Within a half hour, that customer, George Floyd, was dead and the officer who knealt on Floyd's neck, was found guilty of murder.
Following this tragedy, Chris experienced profound guilt and wondered if he had done the right thing.
Chris described his experiences and his motivation to rise for George Floyd in his TEDx Fargo talk in July 2022.
