At the quiet suburban intersection in Minneapolis where Daunte Wright was shot dead, mourners expressed despair over the latest police killing of a Black person to shake the United States.
"We hope for change, but realistically our expectations are different," said Butchy Austin, 37, a corporate sales worker who has become a social activist since the killing of George Floyd in the city last year. A white police officer is currently on trial, accused of murdering Floyd -- and Wright’s death on Sunday has further fueled public anger over Black men killed by police. "Frankly, being a person of color is tiring," said Austin. "We want to know that we can be safe."
