2020-06-04来源:和谐英语

This is AP News Minute.
An autopsy commissioned for George Floyd's family found that he died of asphyxiation due to neck and back compression when a Minneapolis police officer held his knee on Floyd's neck for several minutes. The family's autopsy differs from the official autopsy that said it found nothing “to support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation."
The brother of George Floyd appealed for peace Monday in the aftermath of riots and arson fires following the death of his brother in Minneapolis. Terrence Floyd appeared at the intersection in south Minneapolis where his brother died after a police officer pinned his neck with his knee for several minutes one week ago.

President Donald Trump is telling the nation's governors that most of them are “weak" and calling for tougher crackdowns on violence as protests rage across the nation. Trump's comments came during a teleconference where he chastised governors for failing to use the National Guard more aggressively, saying they're making themselves “look like fools.“
And Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden met with community leaders at a predominantly African American church in Wilmington, Delaware Monday. Biden listened to many plead for him to be their hope for a better future and asked him to pick an African American woman for his running mate.
