The debate surrounding the push for change by protests after the death of George Floyd

Push for changThe debate surrounding the push for change by protests after the death of George Floyd.

In the week of the funeral of George Floyd, we have continued to see the impact of his death and the reaction of people around the world. Protesters are demanding change to racial injustices and inequalities. And in the days since the death of Mr Floyd in Minneapolis on 25 May, we have witnessed many things from police officers marching alongside protesters; to the political debate about US police reform; to the toppling of statues that symbolise the history of slavery and racism. 

Nuala McGovern takes you through conversations with some of the people involved in the global discussion that is taking place.
