He joined Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms during a press conference on Friday.

He continued by expressing his anger and calling for the arrest of the officers responsible for Floyd's death."I am mad as hell. I woke up wanting to see the world burn down yesterday, because I'm tired of seeing black men die. He casually put his knee on a human-being's neck for nine minutes, as he died like a zebra in the clutch of a lion's jaw, and we watch it like murder porn over and over again.

Later in his speech, Render offered inspirational words to the people of Atlanta."My question for us on the other side of this camera is: after it burns will we be left with charred or will we rise like a phoenix out of the ashes that Atlanta has always done? Will we use this as a moment to say that we will not do what other cities have done and in fact, we will get better than we have been?" he asked.

The worst ever situation is created by the arrogant white police officer.
