That’s something different than usual in America, when a Black is killed during a police operation, make the least of the reactions of four former presidents clearly. This time you do not left it at that, to Express Regret over the “tragic” death of George Floyd’s and to pray for the bereaved. Barack Obama is approximately expressed, for millions of black Americans, it was as “painful as unbearable normality”, if you would be treated by the law enforcement authorities “different”. George W. Bush asked the question, how to could end the systemic racism in American society.
many Republicans shun in Congress, the notion of racism. You do not deny the finding that the fear of a police stop, is a constant companion in the life of a black, not a white American. You describe the symptoms, but the diagnosis of refuse, has a single reason: Donald Trump. The President is fighting against a system debate. He speaks of “a few rotten Apples”, as it’ll give you everywhere. Prejudices were to fight; but will it not heal wounds, to call millions of Americans falsely as racists.

The lawsuit, for example, be a confrontation of the guards, with African-Americans, as measured by their share of the population, a disproportionately high, it is held, contrary to the note, the number of crimes committed by Blacks, it is also. It sounds back: While Black stopped constantly on the street and on drugs would be controlled, could sniff white students in their houses unmolested cocaine. The debate is quickly basically: The police complete still basically the order you have received at the time of their Foundation: they protect the interests of the Privileged and a concern for peace.

That group that came in search of a better life in the country?

In fact, there is a need for more Afro-American role models that teach adolescents in social hotspots, that there are more ambitious goals in life, rather than to try to get into the prison.
Trump doesn’t take no Council
Need only a basic police reform, but also an honest debate about the continuing structural inequalities and the principle of self-responsibility. Trump has no interest in it.
