    6/8/2020 Black leaders in Columbus: This time feels different - News - The Columbus Dispatch - Columbus, OH Black leaders in Columbus: This time feels dixerent By Ken Gordon The Columbus Dispatch Posted Jun 7, 2020 at 4:57 AM Although the underlying issues that spawned the current protests are not new, African-American community leaders say they are heartened by the widespread support they see and are generally optimistic that real change in black Americans’ lives will result. Whether they are getting pepper-sprayed on the front lines or are behind the scenes watching from home, African-American leaders in Columbus generally feel optimistic that the recent protests will make a difference. It began a week and a half ago in Columbus with protests over the May 25 death of George Floyd, a black man, after a white police officer in Minneapolis knelt on his neck. Protesters have been calling since for an end to systemic racism. Local leaders find hope in the breadth and diversity of the movement. And they stress that this could mean that unlike after previous deaths of black men, the calls for change will not fade quietly away this time. Get the news delivered to your inbox: Sign up for our politics newsletter “It’s like an alarm is sounding,” said Franklin County Commissioner Kevin Boyce. “What happened to George Floyd was tragic and awful and unnecessary, but if there were a silver lining, it would be that this has awakened a beast.
