What is the realistic outcome here? What happens next time a black man is shot, justifiable or not by police? It appears that these boycotts and the protests throughout the US have created as more division then anything I can remeber in my lifetime.
Yes, because it's weeding out the rasicts . There's always been this division don't fool yourself. It's always been there . It the fact that the technology has allowed everyone a voice to be put out on a global scale. Back in the day it was handing out flyers on the streets and hope the media would maybe cover your event or interview people. The papers and t.v could pick and choose what they published. If say you live in whitefish montana you think your going to read about something that happened in Kalamazoo? You think someone in France would have read about a protest in Kenosha ? That's not the case anymore the internet has enabled both sides to have a voice.
