Even with the end of the Derek Chauvin trial, and as attention again wanes from Minneapolis, the community that occupies the intersection where George Floyd died is as determined as ever to keep his memory alive there.

Police are nowhere to be found in George Floyd Square. In fact, they aren't welcome.

A group is trying to prove peace is possible without them.
