Today brought a verdict. A jury found former police officer Derek Chauvin guilty of the murder of George Floyd.

The Twitterverse exploded with reactions.

Tears. Hope. The understanding that there is healing to be embarked upon and that there is so much work still to be done.

It also brought renewed calls to defund the police.

Here are tweets from some folks from Philadelphia’s nonprofit and civic sectors.

Thank you @AGEllison and your team for prosecuting Derek Chauvin with vigor and intention. #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

There’s still healing that needs to be done. Still holding space for those whose names we’re still honoring.

Our communities still aren’t safe

I'm just tired of black people's bodies being sacrificed on the altar of racism and white supremacy in America. I am not relieved. I'm not happy. I'd rather that George Floyd was alive today. I'm tired of all of us having to fight to be regarded as human beings in America.

This verdict is a step toward justice, but it doesn't change the fact that George Floyd should still be alive today.

Now, we have to do the hard work of preventing these tragedies from occurring in the first place by confronting the institutional racism that's caused them.

True justice will be when we change society so there are no more police murders. Until then we stay in the struggle and we say #DefundThePolice every single day of the week. We breathe a little easier today but the work continues.

George Floyd should still be alive today. I hope today's verdict brings his family and loved ones some measure of peace.

The guilty charges mark an important step for police accountability — but there's still a very long way to go to end systemic racism in this country.

#Philanthropy must use the totality of its power and privilege to fight for #racialjustice. #GeorgeFloyd https://t.co/hSF3FibOtE

Derek Chauvin may have been found guilty, but please remember:

THE WORK IS NOT DONE. One conviction doesn’t undo 400+ years of white supremacy, anti-Blackness, and systemic injustice. We need to do more and we need to do better.#JusticeForGeorgeFloyd #BlackLivesMatter
