I laugh excessively at the people trying to remove this from being a problem of racism and pin it on the police system. It may be the police force's fault but the entire American Judicial system, police force, and media are curated by the people in power;whites. The riots we saw the night before last was a prime example of the pain and suffering that people of color went through, and continue to go through here in America. Like someone else has stated in this thread, I too have experienced firsthand racism occur to black people by police forces, school systems and citizens. Getting Hell look at the comments on some of the youtube videos about this fiasco, you would think a KKK person would have wrote them, but as far as I know that could be my cousin. And they get hundreds of likes and shit. And no, it's not because they're acting like "thugs" it is just because the government and media portray blacks as criminals and thugs, and famous black people like rappers and singers buy into this image for publicity. Things were a lot different when they was positive role models for black males and they weren't portrayed as though, unless you're a ball player or a rapper or a thug, you aren't going to make it. God I miss the days of rappers like Tupac who showed blacks to stand up and fight against oppression in their communities. This is coming from a almost upper class white male, black people have and always will have the short end of the stick, and until us white people speak up about it, it will never get to the point were we can see equally.

Blacks were asking with the panthers, they were asking with the civil rights movement, they were asking with their "thuglife" initiative, they were asking. Now that riot wasn't the right way to go about things, but when you have a black community with no economy, all white police, making money by roadblocks, and lacking aid from the government, of course you're going to see a lot of angry black people, they've been wronged for so long in this country.


So now after years of white violence towards blacks, now that the black people riot and protest against it, now we're finally hearing them?
