Seth Rogen & Steve Carell Donate to Bail Out Minneapolis Protestors

After the horrific death of Minnesota resident George Floyd on Monday night, protests broke out in Minneapolis following the video going viral across social platforms. The video showed police officer Derek Chauvin pinning his knee against George’s neck as he shouted that he couldn’t breathe, begging for his life.

Since the protests began, numerous arrests have been made as cops threw tear gas and shot rubber bullets at protestors. This sparked interest in the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a non-profit dedicated to bailing out low-income individuals.
