The night of May 25, 2020 changed America. George Floyd, a 46-year-old Black man, was killed during an arrest in Minneapolis when a white cop suffocated him. The video of that nighta�TMs events went viral, sparking the largest protests in the nationa�TMs history and the sort of social unrest we have not seen since the sixties. While Floyda�TMs death was certainly the catalyst, (heightened by the fact that it occurred during a pandemic whose victims were disproportionately of color) it was the fuse that lit an ever-filling powder keg. Long Time Coming grapples with the forces that have shaped our nation in the brutal crucible of race.
