It's Black and White When It Comes to Protest

Covid-19 is dramatically illustrating the racial and economic divide in the US.  That disparity shows up the most painfully in the police response to white people protesting stay at home orders versus the police response to African-Americans protesting the police murder of a black man.  We haven't come very far, have we?

So these guys can protest with guns and yell in the face of a police officer to open up hair salon get their hair done it's all good cuz they're protesting their rights as Americans citizen but if we protest the murder of an unarmed black there's an issue #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd pic.twitter.com/haz1bq5Ejw
