Erykah Badu Pays Tribute to George Floyd on His 48th Birthday With His Family

Erykah Badu and George Floyd’s family connected for a peaceful moment honoring Floyd on Tuesday while she was in Minneapolis for her latest tour stop.
Erykah Badu has shared a special moment with her social media followers paying tribute to George Floyd alongside his family.

Today, October 14 would have been Floyd’s 48th birthday so it’s fitting that Badu invited his family backstage at her tour stop in Minneapolis at the Minneapolis Armory on Tuesday. In recent months, the family has received well wishes and camaraderie from voices in the social justice community in addition to countless others.

In the clip Badu shared online, she’s seen with a Geroge Floyd’s sister, uncle, and aunt. There are also a few other family members visible as she pans her phone.
