Throughout the violent protests, some of Floyd's children are calling for peaceful demonstrations.
Quincy Mason Floyd, one of George Floyd's sons joined hundreds of people who were at a Black Lives Matter demonstration Sunday in Texas. He said “I’m really excited about all this, Everyone is coming out and showing him love. I love this. My heart is really touched by all this.”
The last time he saw his father was when he was 4 or 5 years old. When he heard the news of his father's death his mother asked if he knew who it was and she told him that it was his father.
Floyd and his sister praised local protesters for hosting peaceful demonstrations and denounced the violence that is happening in the other cities. Connie Mason Floyd said "The violence is not the right way to do it, Now, this is beautiful, but the violence, it won’t solve nothing.”
