George Floyd murdered by cops

[walrus]

I still don’t know if big D ever met a US cop on US soil and had a problem. Is white supremacy as prominent in your homeland England as it is in the US which you always go on about despite residing in England. I think you would be surprised how well the races mix here in the US. Of course that is never talked of Big D

The U.S. is huge and diverse. Tough to compare NYC to the rural South. Or even NYC and Boston, for that matter. Younger generations do seem to be dropping some of the nauseating ignorance of their forefathers, though.

The problem is that much of the establishment: law enforcement, housing and loans, education, and others.... still retain remnants of the institutionalized racism that was the standard for the last few hundred years.

All can be honky-dory in the streets with people loving each other and having giant hug-fests.

But until meaningful systemic changes occur....... it's all window-dressing and feel-good moments until the next George Floyd.

Old money, old and hidden cronyism bathed in racism.... THOSE are the lenders, the Realtors, the key members on city councils, the neighborhood Karen's who quietly still systemically perpetuate the ugliness of racism, deeply entrenched, silent, but still financially and societally enforcing racism against blacks.
