(6 years ago)The already several-month protests in America have probably taken the attention of many readers from Kosovo who want to understand their gravity and seriousness. Finally, two separate incidents better illustrate the serious situation our friend is facing. George Floyd, the black American who was killed [...]
George Floyd, the black American who was killed by police who held his knee on his neck, became a cause of protests and riots in many American cities but also of heated political debates on the subject.
A series of other incidents followed that provoked other violent protests.
The last event is about American Jacob Blake, who was killed by a police officer with seven bullets, even though the videos showed him unarmed and non-threatious, writes Periscope.
After protests broke out over this serious event, a 17-year-old white man shot three protesters, two of whom remained dead. He was caught by the cameras while walking with a rifle in his hand and completely ignored by the police there.
US President Donald Trump has not yet spoken about these events, while he is expected tonight to deliver his speech at the Republican National Convention, where he accepts the competition for a second term in Zeren Ovale.
Republicans have denied that there is what is called systemic “racism” in the U.S.
Protests in the US are expected to play a major and possibly crucial role in determining the winner of this year's November 3rd presidential race. /Periscope
