The killing of George Floyd in May 2020 shook Minnesota to its core.

And some Minnesotans feel traumatized all over again as coverage of the 

trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin

 picks up. For some, it brings back memories of the first time they saw the video of Floyd on the ground with Chauvin on top of him.

Community leaders and faith leaders are answering the call for help. Across the Twin Cities, there are efforts to give people a place to talk about police violence and racial injustice.

Host Angela Davis talked with guests who are supporting friends and neighbors looking for ways to heal as they confront their feelings of grief, anger, anxiety and fear during the trial.

Davis also talked with Ruben Rosario, a newspaper journalist who wrote a 

 for the St. Paul Pioneer Press, where he worked for nearly 30 years.
