4:21Now PlayingThe city of Minneapolis is scrapping an idea to pay influencers to spread positive messages on social media during the trial of Derrick Chauvin, the ex-police officer who killed George Floyd last May.
City Council members initially voted to pay Black and Latino social media influencers $2,000 to pump out their propaganda during the trial, but after feedback from the community, city officials announced today they will no longer move forward with that strategy.
Instead, the city plans to hold weekly meetings with neighborhood organizations, and send emails with information about the trial and community resources in hopes residents will stay calm no matter the verdict.
