ATLANTA – Tweet: In the two weeks since George Floyd’s killing, cities around the nation have begun implementing changes such as banning chokeholds.
But advocates and demonstrators say they are pushing for long-term reform, not quick concessions.In the two weeks since George Floyd's killing, police departments have banned chokeholds, Confederate monuments have fallen and officers have been arrested and charged amid large global protests against violence by police and racism.
The moves are far short of the overhaul of police, prosecutors' offices, courts and other institutions that protesters seek.
But some advocates and demonstrators say they are encouraged by the swiftness of the response to Floyd's death — incremental as it may.
