Fox Television Stations One Hour Special Examines the Five Years After George Floyd
The show is produced by Fox 9 Minneapolis and will look into what has or hasn't changed since George Floyd's murder in Minneapolis sparked protests, civil unrest, and nationwide calls for police reform.
Hosted by Fox 9's Symone Woolridge, the show shares the stories of residents and businesses in and around George Floyd Square five years later.
Here's what the show producers promise:
We will walk the beat with two Minneapolis police officers assigned to the area, where emotions remain raw.
We sit down with the former police chief who led the department five years ago - and the current chief - to explore what has changed and what work remains.
We speak with the State Commissioner of Human Rights about the consent decrees now in place for the police department: Have they made a difference?
And we follow the journey of the muralist who painted the iconic image of George Floyd in 2020.
The special will air on Sunday, May 25 across all Fox Television Station primary streams at 9 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CT. This includes each Fox Local channel, LiveNOW, and Fox Soul.

Waiting for the Great Woke Novel
The artists among the class of 2020 have fallen uncharacteristically silent. All civilizations record major events. Only the West has expanded the media of memory to include film, television and audiobooks, while also granting near-infinite license to its artists. The Enlightenment turned the arts into a running commentary, especially in the U.S.—until recently. Twenty twenty was the year of the Covid-19 outbreak and an induced economic crisis. The year of the George Floyd riots and Black Lives Matter. The year of Joe Biden's basement run and Hunter Biden's laptop. The raw material of history was everywhere. Artists should have spent the past half decade refining 2020's historical dividend into the verities of art and royalty checks. We're still waiting. Compare this silence with the watersheds of World War II and the 1960s, and it's clear that apart from a few Covid cash-in novels that failed to capture the public's attention, the arts have lost their voice. The movies 'Casablanca' (1942) and 'Guadalcanal Diary' (1943), Norman Rockwell's 'Rosie the Riveter' series, and novels such as John Hersey's 'A Bell for Adano' and Saul Bellow's 'Dangling Man' (both 1944) were all produced while World War II was still going on, followed by Norman Mailer's 'The Naked and the Dead' in 1948. The changes of the '60s were reflected and accelerated by the music of Bob Dylan, the Beatles and Jimi Hendrix as well as movies such as 'The Graduate' (1967) and 'Easy Rider' (1969), and even the stage musical 'Hair' (1967). Look at the past five years. Black lives mattered to the graduates of George Floyd U, but not enough to write a competent novel, compose a memorable song, or produce a half-decent painting or movie. There is, as Buffalo Springfield noted, something happenin' here. What it is ain't exactly clear, but its primary symptom is that nothing much is happenin' now.

Pokemon Presents Announced for July 2025 With Pikachu Speaker Tease
It's that time again, trainers: Grab your Pokedex and get ready to catch some new pocket monsters, because we're about to hear everything on the latest developments in the world of Pokemon. The Pokemon Presents July 2025 stream is the first one since Pokemon Day in February. That stream ended up being pretty massive, featuring game announcements and content updates that we heard whispers about from GameFreak's infamous 2024 data breach. While we don't know what to expect this time around, it's safe to assume that we'll hear about the next mainline games, mobile titles, live service updates and more. Here's how you can watch the upcoming Pokemon Direct -- and what you can expect to see once you tune into the stream. We've seen an official trailer for Pokemon Legends: Z-A, but the upcoming Pokemon Presents stream could divulge more information about the game. Nintendo/Screenshot by CNET How to watch July 2025's Pokemon Presents stream The upcoming Pokemon Presents stream will take place on Tuesday, July 22 at 9 a.m. ET. The stream will go live on the official Pokemon YouTube channel. Not sure when July's Pokemon Presents will go live for you? Here's when the event starts in your time zone: ET: July 22 at 9 a.m. July 22 at 9 a.m. CT: July 22 at 8 a.m. July 22 at 8 a.m. MT: July 22 at 7 a.m. July 22 at 7 a.m. PT: July 22 at 6 a.m. We don't know exactly how long the event will run, but previous Pokemon Presents streams have ranged from 10 to 20 minutes long, depending on how many announcements are prepared for the stream. Pokemon Go just celebrated its ninth anniversary -- we can expect to hear more about this mobile game (among others) during the upcoming Pokemon Direct. Nintendo/Screenshot by CNET What can you expect from Pokemon Presents July 2025? This Pokemon Presents stream is positioned at a strange time -- Pokemon Legends: Z-A for the Nintendo Switch 2 has already been announced and we have plenty of info (and gameplay footage) available for that game. We might still get a segment that expands on new gameplay mechanics or Pokemon that players will be able to find in this version of the Kalos region, especially Mega forms we haven't yet seen. The official Pokemon Company Japan X account teased this Pokemon Direct with a rather foreboding photo of Pikachu standing in front of some DJ equipment, so we might just hear about a Pokemon rhythm game. Between that, New Pokemon Snap and the return of Mystery Dungeon, I'm loving the reintroduction of bizarre offshoot games. It's also possible that generation 10 will be announced during the presentation. There are usually three years between mainline Pokemon titles, and Pokemon Scarlet and Violet released in 2022. Unless GameFreak is looking to polish the next big games with some extra development time, we're probably due to hear about the next generation of Pokemon games extremely soon. Pokemon Day 2025 featured an announcement for Pokemon Champions, a dedicated Pokemon battling game, but we haven't heard much about the game since. We could very well get an update about that game during this stream, explaining more about how the game will integrate the series' long list of battle mechanics and giving us a better idea of when we'll see a full release. Otherwise, the backbone of this presentation will very likely be composed of routine updates and new features for Pokemon mobile and live service games. We can expect to hear about new Pokemon coming to Pokemon Cafe Mix, Pokemon Masters Ex and Pokemon Sleep, with the potential for new playable pocket monsters to be revealed for Pokemon Unite. With Pokemon Go changing hands from Niantic to Scopely, it's also possible that the extremely popular AR game will have announcements that shake up core gameplay features for Pokemon trainers worldwide. The recent addition of the Gold Bottle Cap was already a massive change for the status quo. I'd be willing to bet that the next Pokemon TCG Pocket set will be revealed during this Pokemon Presents as well. New expansions are usually teased at the end of each month, which lines up with this stream. The last Pokemon Presents included info about a massive set expansion, too, so the precedent is already set for this reveal. If you're excited for non-gaming Pokemon content, there's also a chance we'll see some Pokemon Concierge during the Pokemon Presents July stream. The second season for this slice-of-life Pokemon hotel series is set to release on Netflix in September, so we might catch a scene or two teasing the show and get an official release date.
