On Wednesday, Associated Press photographer Evan Vucci posted a photo of a Marine holding a White House door open for Gianna Floyd, daughter of George Floyd, whose death at the hands of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin one year ago sparked. Gianna was in attendance with the rest of her family, lawyer Benjamin Crump and his team—and, for some reason, rapper Lil Baby—all there to meet with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
“This photo is amazing, she looks like she lives there the way she’s going through that door by herself,”one Twitter user. “The level of respect that this shows is wonderful as well.” Marines always stand guard outside of the West Wing doors and are tasked with opening them for visitors, so this photo doesn’t depict respect as much as it depicts duty. But someone concurred, replying, “May she one day lead us all.
“The best part is she doesn’t think this is special or that she’s different —she’s just going in to see her friend. I hope she calls him Papa Joe,”
