Officer Thao stood nearby, in an apparent effort to separate bystanders from the unfolding scene. In the video, Floyd said “I can’t breathe”—sixteen times. He said, “My stomach hurts, my neck hurts, everything hurts.” He called out “Please” and “Mama.” Floyd at one point said, “I’m about to die.” Chauvin told him to “relax.”
Dude said a lot for someone unable to breath.

Missing a little known case because it does not fit the black narrative. The case Johnson v. Parker in 1654. The case codified in the U.S. that a person could be "owned" for the his entire life. Ownership was not limited to a term of indentured servitude.
The reason it's not told is because Anthony Johnson was black and Robert Parker was white.

John Casor, the chattel being sued for, was black, though.

I think the case predates the U.S. by about 120+ years.
