Racism was practiced in the open until the 1950s. Black people were barred from hanging with white people, they were forced to give up their seats for white people in local buses. Shortly before the Emmett Till incident 15 year old teenage girl Claudette Colvin refused to give up her bought seat for a white woman. She was arrested. After the Emmet Till incident started the widespread anti racism civil rights movement which included the Montgomery bus boycott. A. Philip Randolph fought for years in the 1940s for equal treatment of black servicemen in the military. Black men and women led countless movements, peaking in the 60s with MLK taking the central stage, to put an end to racism for good. After MLK's assassination the 1968 civil rights act was a turning point. Racism is no longer practiced widespread in the open, but is still there, even now white people refuses to share bus seats with black people, and of course there are these police brutalities and out right murders. All these discrimination and hate crimes, yet people don't get, black or white, their place upon death will be the same, the grave, bodies decayed alike by parasites reduced to mere skeletons. Do white folks who are generalizing (certainly not all, just those who are racist) think they will have a better fate, that they are just better than all by virtue of their skin color. They are nothing but the same mud begins as blacks. Black or White we are all humans and its time for perfect equality to settle and such brutal extrajudicial torture and killings to stop.
George Floyd wasn't involved in the grocery theft, he just looked similar to the said suspect. Even if it was the real suspect, is something as barbaric as a cop sitting on his neck while he pleads to let him breath while being chocked, all bystanders telling to let go of him, but the cop just enjoying it acceptable? No! He did everything as the cops said, even would have let them arrest him, but the cops wanted to humiliate him. And he isn't the only one, black people have been victimized by police in this manner since long before the civil rights era, and I mentioned some other cases, there are cases of blacks being shot dead for being blacks, no link to criminal activities at all, and all this needs to stop. People needs to understand black lives matter!
Don't beat around the bush, man, say what you really mean :P
All joking aside though, you're absolutely right. It's terrible that those cops barbarically choked him to death like that. There is a part of me that wishes society would reel in shock every time SOMEONE got shot/choked to death though, as opposed to x skin colour/religion member.
IIN there is no stop to white police brutality on black people?
