Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - CBS News: George Floyd's death sparks massive protests in Minneapolis

The video disturbed my sleep all night. The act shows the level of depravity of the Police officers and the broken system that is United States of America. The idea that the US belongs only  to the Caucasians is at the root of this wicked racism. Yet as Obama said during a tour to Poland in 2016, almost everyone in the US (apart from the Red Indians) is a migrant. One would expect more reactions and protests from Africans and progressive forces across races on this matter.

This is a horrible video. Sad. Very sad. How do these policemen go to sleep at night? What type of a human being will kneel on someone's neck with all their weight at an angle that can break the neck? Are we so callous that we no longer see one another as humans? What have we degenerated to? God almighty please help humanity. I cannot but cry looking at this video.
