Before George Floyd died while a police officer knelt on kênh xem sexhis neck for nearly nine minutes, he rasped "I can't breathe."

It was the same gut-wrenching phrase uttered by Eric Garner when a New York cop had him in a chokehold before he died in 2014. Since then it has been a constant rallying cry at Black Lives Matter and police brutality protests. It's come to represent how suffocating it can be to be black in America. The Minneapolis cop whom Floyd begged for air has been charged with 3rd-degree murder. The New York cop was never charged with a crime and was only fired last year.

Now as protests spread across America and internationally to demand justice for Floyd, those final words have made their way onto coronavirus masks. The face mask, once just the symbol of a virus that attacks the lungs, has become a protest sign for those who can't breathe in other ways, too.

People have been gathering en masse for the first time in months since COVID-19 stay-at-home orders rippled throughout the world. They're mad about Floyd, yes, but it runs deeper than that. They're also incensed by the killings of Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, Philando Castile, Walter Scott, and the many, many other black people who have died in police shootings. They're angry about Ahmaud Arbery, too. Arbery wasn't killed by police but his February death was nearly buried by local officials until cellphone footage emerged of him being pursued by two armed white men in a South Georgia neighborhood. Both men have been charged with murder. The protesters are calling for an end to police brutality, systemic inequality, and racial oppression.

After months alone, they were ready to say so together — with their chants, with their signs, and with their pandemic masks.
