While George Floyd's name is circulating in every bohemian media, some photos starring the characters of the famous series The Simpsons are going viral. There are endless posts on social media that assume that The Simpsons predicted the current situation many years ago.

In fact, the famous series is known for some predictions, but is this one of those cases?
No, it's not! This time it's not about a prediction of The Simpsons, as viral photos are a creation of Yuri Pomo, an Italian creator known for such animations. He created these photos recently, inspired by the current situation in the US.
How would you feel, if while sat on your couch with your son or daughter, this suddenly happend while watching the Simpsons? As cruel as it has been. How would you feel ?! #BLACK_LIVES_MATTERS #BlackLiveMatters #GeorgeFloyd #GeorgeFloydWasMurdered #GeorgeFlyod #BlackLivesMatters pic.twitter.com/fU6QU09hAS

Last year, Pomo became famous after turning many VIPs into Simpsons characters through animation.
He created two animated photos; one showing the moment when the policeman kept his foot on Floyd's neck and another in his memory, with protesters demanding justice for George.
RIP George, a prayer goes to you, your family and everyone who suffered and lived in any way, any kind of racism, love you guys â¤ï¸ #noracism #racism #GeorgeFloyd #BlackLivesMatters #BlackLivesMatter #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd #minneapolisriots #Minneapolis #icimpreathe # pic.twitter.com/KynbQuszOC
