"Your Lives Matter": President Obama Backs Protests over George Floyd's Killing
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On Wednesday, former President Obama expressed his support for the
nationwide protests and criticized the actions of some police officers.

Barack Obama: "Too often, some of that violence has come from folks who
were supposed to be serving and protecting you. I want you to know that
you matter. I want you to know that your lives matter, that your dreams
matter."
