Where Are The News Vans Now?
“The news crews focus on black people looting, but there are many of us here also trying to clean up. They don’t focus on that!” This is Marvin Applewhite. He is leading efforts to clean up after riots. I haven't heard any news organization show that there are people like him out there. He has a GoFundMe to help with supplies and food for the other volunteers
... and that is the story of how racists finally succeeded in getting rid of all foreign people - and everyone else.
Enjoy your pandemic, murrica
The facts are that white males are more than twice as likely to be killed by police than black males, and black males kill far more white males than the other way around.
Dude, the numbers of whites are twice as high, not the chances. That's a big difference. Plus, there are much less cases of needles brutality against whites. Plus, it's proven that blacks get more punishment for the same crimes than whites, getting more often controlled and so on.
"Dude,"
From the 2018 Bureau of Justice National Crime Victimization-Table 14 Interracial Violent Crime Incidents:
Black on White- 547,948 incidents
White on Black- 59,778 incidents
Black on Hispanic- 112,365 incidents
Hispanic on Black- 44,551 incidents
Hispanic on White- 365,299 incidents
White on Hispanic- 207,104 incidents
More to the point, remember all the riots and looting over the shooting of Justine Diamond?
Me neither.
would be good if you quoted where you got those numbers from
my bad...
first of all, let's highlight the fact, that you used wrong numbers or didn't understand the concept of absolute and relative numbers and simply changed the subject after someone told you that.
I gonna check those numbers. Still, they might be biased. I wouldn't call the police as a black person for a good reason.
Look, in scientific fields like sociology, there is no doubt that america has a problem with structural racism. But still we're "discussing" this topic since hundreds of years now and keep wondering why the same things are happening over and over again.
I had to give that one a thumbs up!
I know posting this is divisive but it's worth pointing out that "words matter"
Maybe it's just me, but doesn't "taking a knee" sound like an inappropriate term to use considering the circumstances?
