Answer:

George Floyd, From ‘I Want to Touch the World’ to ‘I Can’t Breathe’

Explanation:

Mr. Floyd had big plans for life nearly 30 years ago. His death in police custody is powering a movement against police brutality and racial injustice.It was the last day of 11th grade at Jack Yates High School in Houston, nearly three decades ago. A group of close friends, on their way home, were contemplating what senior year and beyond would bring. They were black teenagers on the precipice of manhood. What, they asked one another, did they want to do with their lives?

“George turned to me and said, ‘I want to touch the world,’” said Jonathan Veal, 45, recalling the aspiration of one of the young men — a tall, gregarious star athlete named George Floyd whom he had met in the school cafeteria on the first day of sixth grade. To their 17-year-old minds, touching the world maybe meant the N.B.A. or the N.F.L.

“It was one of the first moments I remembered after learning what happened to him,” Mr. Veal said. “He could not have imagined that this is the tragic way people would know his name.”

Translation:    El Sr. Floyd tenía grandes planes de vida hace casi 30 años. Su muerte bajo custodia policial está impulsando un movimiento contra la brutalidad policial y la injusticia racial. Fue el último día del 11º grado en la escuela secundaria Jack Yates en Houston, hace casi tres décadas. Un grupo de amigos cercanos, en su camino a casa, contemplaban lo que traería el último año y más allá. Eran adolescentes negros en el precipicio de la virilidad. ¿Qué, se preguntaban, querían hacer con sus vidas?

"George se volvió hacia mí y me dijo: 'Quiero tocar el mundo'", dijo Jonathan Veal, de 45 años, recordando la aspiración de uno de los jóvenes: un atleta alto y gregario llamado George Floyd, a quien había conocido en la escuela. cafetería en el primer día de sexto grado. Para sus mentes de 17 años, tocar el mundo tal vez significaba el N.B.A. o el N.F.L.

"Fue uno de los primeros momentos que recordé después de enterarme de lo que le sucedió", dijo Veal. "No podría haber imaginado que esta es la forma trágica en que las personas sabrían su nombre".
