For those if you stuggling to understand what Systemic racism looks like...the video footage of the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmad Arbuary, Freddie Grey, and many many others including the newly released video of Elijah McClain are very clear examples of what Systemic Racism looks like in the world.
It doesn't matter where you are in the USA(there is no explicit communication between any of the aggressors(law enforcement and citizens)), if your black or brown, your viewed as an implicit and explicit threat and a danger to society ( who's society). If your black or brown Your viewed as such a threat that non-compliance with law officers and citizens results in, despite these folks not knowing or communicating with each other, the common and repetitive result of using deadly force as a first option in gaining compliance. This is systematic racism.
Elijah McClain was a good kid, just going about his business and he was choked out by police for not complying with their orders which made no sense to this young man who never had any such encounters with police in his life. He was a good kid and good student. The police were called by a citizen who felt threaten by his being black and his appearance while being black. The person who called 911 was as systematically racist as the police were in applying a knee to his neck, even after he said he "couldn't not breath" and even after he vomited multiple times with a knee on his neck.
Times up racist!!!!
Ps- and you wonder why the entire world is enraged by this behavior of systemic racism? The killing of an innocent kid?

they'll never believe it. they choose to believe it doesn't exist because that's what they want to believe. fuck reality, they'll create their own as long as it means they're benefitting from it.
