George's brother has condemned the violence saying his family is upset by it as George was a peaceful man.
No - yet again posters twisting words for their own agenda
Terrence Floyd, the brother of George Floyd, has calmed for the death penalty for the officers and called for non violent action. His emphasis is on change not on condemning those uppity black thugs
The brother of George Floyd has called for "peace" and "justice" through voting rather than violence as he addressed a rally in Minneapolis.
Terrence Floyd urged the crowds to "educate themselves" and vote as he spoke to crowds in the city where his brother died last week.
Riots have erupted in cities around the US and across the world after a white police knelt on the 46-year-old's neck for nine minutes.
Protesters have defied curfews in the US as a sixth night of demonstrations turned violent, with unrest convulsing cities from Philadelphia to Los Angeles and flaring near the White House.
But Mr Floyd's brother, Terrence, has now called for "another way" to get justice for George.
He said: "Let's do this another way. Let's stop thinking that our voice does not matter and vote.
"Do not just vote for the president but for the preliminaries. Vote for everybody.
Educate yourself. Educate yourself. Do not wait for somebody else to tell you who is who. Educate yourself and now who you are voting for."
He told the crowds that those protesting should vote because there is "a lot of us" and: "That is how we are going to hit them."
And we are still doing to do this peacefully because that is how we going to get them.
We going to fool them," he continued. "Let's switch it up. Do this peacefully please."
"I highly doubt - no, I know - he would not want you all to be doing this."
Mr Floyd told the crowds to "relax" before breathing deeply into the megaphone.
He then began chanting with the protesters: "Peace to the left. Justice on the right."
