Former police officer and cousin of George Floyd delivers moving testimony at NAACP rally

NAACP Ventura County chapter hosts solidarity rally outside government center Thursday, June 4.
VENTURA, California - Calls for justice echoed from the podium at the Ventura County Government Center on Thursday. A crowd of all ages gathered for a solidarity rally hosted by the local chapter of the NAACP, aimed at denouncing racism and police brutality. Quentin Floyd, a former police officer in Washington D.C. who now lives with his family in Oxnard, took to the mic and shared emotional testimony about the death of his cousin George Floyd. Floyd died in police custody in Minneapolis on May 25. He was stopped by officer Derek Chauvin, who's been seen on video holding his knee on Floyd's neck for eight minutes and forty-six seconds. Floyd can be seen on video before his death repeatedly saying "I can't breathe". Since, the time 8:46 has become a painful symbol of modern day police brutality and racism. To honor such, there was a moment of silence that lasted exactly that. Also sharing his voice for change was civil rights activist and founder of Coffee with a Black Guy, James Joyce III.  Joyce spoke with passion and vigor sharing words he says his ancestors inspired him to say. Joyce founded Coffee with a Black Guy in 2016, a social impact movement dedicated to the war on racism. Other guest speakers included Regina K. Hatcher-Crawford, president of the Ventura County chapter of the NAACP. Each shared a message of pain, hope and love. The rally ended with a peaceful march around the government complex. Watch now.

WATCH NOW: The truth behind Slim Thug's coronavirus and new album

HOUSTON, Texas - Rapper #SlimThug was the first major artist in #Houston to be diagnosed with #Coronavirus, but it's not getting him down. As a matter of fact, it's forced him to get creative with the release of his new album, since he had to do it quarantined, from the comfort of his home. His new album 'Thug Life' features hip hop notables Scarface, Z-Ro, Mr. Lee, DJ Young Samm and more. It dropped on March 27th, just three days after he found out he tested positive for COVID-19. With mandatory social distancing in Houston and nationwide, he says the timing of this is crazy, but is confident his musik is here at the right time. "I wanted to do something real," Slim said. "It's gonna be therapy for a lot of folks. I wanna be a part that help people get through this." Ky Meyer spoke with Slim in a candid, quarantine interview about his new musik and his aim to help heal the world during this difficult time.
