Some cities have decreased police funding and a few are cleaning house with their officers, though the nation at large has been pretty firm in resisting police reform for whatever reason. As per usual, the marches, protests, and pleas for equality fall on deaf ears. As they always have.

@SW-User well said
Zero credibility..
Don’t even mention police brutality any more. It’s reparation demands..

Not much money raised went to the BLACK communities and stores they destroyed.. but Biden got a fair chunk..

I read an article that a Ulysses S. Grant statue was torn down. Yes, he was gifted a slave, and he immediately freed that person. There's also a push somewhere to have a Lincoln statue removed. It's all really confusing.
the change happens slowly.
but in 1977 a "mixed race person" was rejected on both sides
a few decades later? we had mixed race man as president
is it SLOW< painfully slow
but things are getting better.
eve the dalit, seem to be making headway

BLM in my opinion is a call for America to deal with its systemic racism, it's not a solution.

Right on! I've been following what's happening in Chicago. Last weekend 200 people showed up for the "shut down the Dan Ryan"...then they got their asses kicked by the cops. Further - a lot of the residents of Lawndale bitched at them to go back home - meaning this movement is setting back any progress they're making with establishing a relationship w/police. It's flawed. And believe me, once CV19 is cured and all these kids have to go back to school someday - this will be one for the history books.
