How many more will be murdered before the midterms? And then how many more in the next two years while Trump finishes out his term?
And how many in the years after that? This didn’t start with Trump, and it won’t magically end with him either.
This is the status quo that centrism defends. This isn’t just about Trump, or the GOP, or the South, or a few bad cops. It’s about a systematically murderous white supremacist police state that has existed for centuries.
The major change of the modern day is not that police violence against Black people has suddenly escalated. The major change is that middle-class white people are finally beginning to notice what has always been happening.
