During the one-hour special, NBC News’ Craig Melvin speaks with Floyd\u2019s siblings, Blake\u2019s father and sister and Garner\u2019s mother and son about police brutality, racial injustice and their shared commitment to turning their pain into advocacy work. Floyd\u2019s brother, Philonise Floyd, tells Melvin: \u201cUntil I can get that satisfaction of understanding and knowing that I matter, my life matters here, it’ll never be the same for me. I will have to keep protesting.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Journey for Justice <\/em>also features interviews with key experts and lawmakers on the demand for major police reforms and what they think should be done about police violence against Black Americans in the United States.
