I said the same thing along time ago. George Floyd's death made white society malfunction. Not only did it strike a chord with black people, it struck a cord with everyone around the globe. White people knew that they had went too far. You don't kill a man in cold blood like that. Derek Chauvin was so brazen that he killed George Floyd in front of everyone.
What this brother says is true. However, what bothers me about the incident with George Floyd, and other black men who have died, is that a black man always has to die before change is made. We are hated by almost every group while we are alive. This society does not want black men to EVER be real men. They don't think that way about any other ethnic group. I know one thing, ever since the George Floyd incident, people are a lot friendlier in the Bay. I attribute it to two things: COVID-19, and George Floyd's death.
A black man shouldn't have to die in order for change to be made. It was same thing with the civil rights movement. When they killed Martin Luther King Jr., that was when radical change was made. The bottom line: most people, unless they actually CARE about black men, don't want black men to become real men.
Period.
