Do you believe it is anger over the persistence of Police Killings reaches boiling point it spilled onto the streets of new york where demonstrators scuffled with offices into the night. Was in the Southern States of georgia protesters in atlanta faced off with Police Outside the head offices of Media Companies c n n the clashes prompted this plea from the mayor. This is chaos a protest has a purpose you are disgracing our city you are disgracing the life of george lloyd in every other person who has been killed in this country we are better than this. But its the way that george floyd and many other africanamerican men have died in Police Custody that has fueled this public outrage the officer who restrained george floyd has been charged with 3rd degree murder. But that isnt enough for these protesters in minneapolis or the victims relatives d. Who do they want the 3 other officers at the scene to face murder charges to. Authorities impose a curfew in minneapolis to try and calm the tensions after days of unrest but protesters along with looters and arsonists defied it. In washington demonstrators rallied outside the white house President Trump condemned the violence that has accompanied protests nationwide in all our situation. Happened in minneapolis to descend further into a lawless anarchy and chaos and we understand that very well that trump promised to speed up the investigation into George Floyds death but the public is demanding more than just another probe into another death of an African American in Police Custody its one thing for institutional change their. From move on a state every report to arran tilton joins me now aaron thanks for joining me so this started obviously in minneapolis but this is fast approaching across the country yes it is this is the protests around in georgia floyds death are actually kind of ignited a fire of anger throughout the United States were seeing bylane protests crop up in many large urban areas and even to a certain extent around the world i mean last night in berlin i saw a group of protesters actually walking down the street trying to weight raise awareness about the death of george floyd so this is really quickly becoming an International Issue its really definitely hit a nerve sadly this is not the 1st instance of a Controversial Police killing an unarmed black man black man weve seen it many times before several times even this year has anything in the states really changed well to be honest its hard to talk about individual Police DepartmentsUnited States is a massive country but if youre looking at it from kind of a birds eye perspective it doesnt really seem a lot is changing i mean time and time again were seeing video come out of young black men losing their lives to Police Officers and as a result the Police Action and not really much coming of it and you know this isnt just something thats cropped up with the advent of the camera phone i mean weve been seeing these type of incidents for decades in the United States i mean think of the 1902 l. A. Race riots which were kicked off when 4 Police Officers were acquitted of beating rodney king and go even further back i mean the some of the lynchings that we saw in the fiftys and sixtys or even going back to slavery i mean this is a problem the United States has been grappling with for hundreds and. Hundreds of years you know im a white kid from iowa im not going to pretend to actually know what its like to be black in the United States but its easy to see how frustrating it can be when a group of people see themselves constantly disadvantaged or actually having their rights taken away and having their life taken away by men in uniform and you know i hate to read a quote out on the air but i think im going to my the chief of police of my Home Town PoliceDepartment Just released this statement regarding this video and i think it sums it up perfectly he wrote this is a man with 30 years on the police force a couple of days ago i saw a video that shook me to my core it doesnt require any Additional Information i dont need to know what other videos out there i dont need to know what prompted the encounter i dont need to know what happened in the moments before the video started i dont need to know the personal history of anyone in the video everything i need to know is there in the video a man george floyd was not treated like a human being lost his life another man recklessly took that life with him parents and difference that 2nd man or uniform what were seeing here is the frustration and anger of a group of people who see their humanity constantly taken away from them by people wearing uniforms and unfortunately if you know the history of United States this is been going on for 400 years yeah well this is obviously more than just i mean obviously the Police Brutality is a massive part of it but it isnt just about placed brutality against black americans and communities in the us a suffering black communities are suffering disproportionately so even during at the moment with a crime of ours theyre being hit hard to them White Community so i mean what does a car the economy have to do with this does it play a role oh i definitely mean it has to be if you look at it i mean as i said before im a white kid from iowa but that ours automatically means my Socio Economic outcome of the United States are a lot better than a lot of my black countrymen i mean at the end of the day i have access to better education to better jobs to better housing. Then they do i also dont necessarily have to worry about being the targets of Police Action as much as they do i mean once it is like i was reading recently theres kind of shocked me was the fact that the average wealth of a black family is 90 percent lower than a white family and a lot of it has to do with housing that they cant get access to bank loans to transport money on to the next generation so of course Socio Economic conditions are going to play a role with this frustration thats building because at the end of the day people are seeing that if youre born black in the United States you dont have the same abilities you dont have the same advantages as if youre born like i was in a small town in iowa and thank you very much an analysis thank you.
