MINNEAPOLIS — The family of George Floyd will attend the Minnesota Vikings’ season opener against Green Bay.

The Vikings announced Friday their plans to raise awareness of issues of racism and injustice at U.S. Bank Stadium before Sunday’s game, which will be played without fans because of the pandemic. The Vikings will also honour Minneapolis therapists Sara and Jamil Stamschror-Lott, a couple that founded an organization focused on community healing. They’re also leaders at All Square, a local non-profit social enterprise that seeks to empower formerly incarcerated individuals.
