It was on year ago today that George Floyd was murdered by former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chavin. In the aftermath of Floyd’s tragic death, Minneapolis city councilman Phillipe Cunningham became a national figure when he spoke out about the horrific police violence and systemic racism that has been plaguing his city for generations.33-year-old Cunningham, who is one of the first openly trans men to be elected to public office in the United States, shared his thoughts in an interview with Windy City Times.“I have put in hours and hours and hours of work trying to make the smallest change within the institution of policing in this city,” he said.
