Jessica Smith-Peterson sits in silence after speaking George Floyd’s last words to a group taking an 8-minute, 46-second moment of silence outside the Regional Justice Center on Monday, June 8, 2020 in Las Vegas. The demonstration follows more than a week of protests against police brutality after Floyd, a black man, was killed by a white Minneapolis police officer when he knelt on Floyd’s neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds.
