«If he could see this in the physical form with us, I promise he would give all of y’all hugs,» Floyd’s brother told a crowd.
A hologram showing George Floyd was projected in front of a Robert E. Lee statue in Richmond, Virginia on Tuesday night. A large crowd, including members of Floyd’s family, gathered at the unveiling of the temporary memorial.
The three-dimensional projection shows a flurry of lights banding together to display Floyd’s face and his name over the Confederate statue. His family members went to the inaugural event held by the George Floyd Hologram Memorial Project — a partnership between the George Floyd Foundation and Change.
