Pulitzer nod for teenager

The teenager who recorded George Floyd being pinned to the ground by a police officer has received a special citation by the Pulitzer Prize board.

Darnella Frazier was cited “for courageously recording the murder of George Floyd, a video that spurred protests against police brutality, around the world, highlighting the crucial role of citizens in journalists’ quest for truth and justice,” the Pulitzer Prizes said.

Ms Frazier was 17 when she recorded the arrest.
