This website or article writer does not support the usage of the word black’s, it was fairly used to make the readers understand this topic in depth.
Blacks and Whites, ivi rendu nature lo unde rendu colours..kaani humans ki vacheappatiki..Whites ante superior ani, black ante inferior ane oka wrong notion undhi.
Ikkada major problem enti ante, colour ni color ga chudakunda ‘Class’ (High & Low) kindha classify cheyadaniki use cheyatam.
Throughout the years of human evolution, black’s ni oppress chesaru because of their colour, vallani slaves and low classs ga treat chesevaru. Vallu financial and economical ga kuda weak ga undela Whites balance chesevaru by giving jobs are doing bussiness only with Whites.
Ayithe Whites lo kontha mandhi ee opression ki against ga edurutirigaaru, less number of people undatam valana vallu raise chesina voice evaru peddhaga pattinchukoledhu.
Konni hundered of years nundi blacks meedha vivaksha undhi, ayithe deeni meedha revolts kuda jarigayi..Apartheid was one such revolt.
Ayithe Apartheid kante mundhe, Indian ayina Gandhiji ee jaathi vivaksha ni South Africa lo chavichusaru. He started Civil Rights activity and revolted against racial discrimination in South Africa.
As the years passed, with continous revolts and stuggle ee discrimination baaga taggindhi..and blacks also started having equal rights, but thats not the end of this racial discrimination.
Recent ga jarigina oka crime inka ee racial discrimination anedhi undhi ani prove chesthundhi.
What is the crime?
25th May 2020, USA lo Minnesota state, Minneapolis ane city lo around 9 PM time lo George Floyd (46 yrs) ane oka African-American, oka deli (food store) ki vachi ciggarettes purchase chesi money pay chesadu, but aa restaurant owners aa notes ni gamaninchi avi counterfeit bill’s (fake currency) ani anukunnaru.

Chala sepu breathe teesukovadaniki try chesthu..Floyd unconscious ayipoyadu..janalu idhi chusi kekalu veyadam start chesaru, Chauvin ni knee remove cheyamani chepparu..kaani Chauvin inka alaney tana knee ni Floyd neck meedha unchadu.

Strethcer meedha Floyd ni ekkistunappude chuttu unna andariki ardham ayyindhi..Floyd is no more ani.
9:25 pm ki Floyd chanipoyadu ani announce chesaru.
Aftermath :
Next day, police statement lo Floyd arrest ni resist chesadu ani chepparu..kaani CCTV footage and people teesina videos ni Youtube lo upload cheyadam tho avi false accusations ani thelayi. Video lo ekkada Floyd arrest ni resist chesinattu ledhu.

Private autopsy ki Floyd family opt cheskunnaru..aa report lo Floyd ni ekkuva sepu neck restraint cheyadam valana oopiri andhaka, oxygen in flow brain ki aagipovadam tho & Stangling valana chanipoyadu ani vachindhi.
Ee case meedha FBI investigation inka continue avuthundi.
Riots :
Ee vishayam viral avvadam tho Floyd ki support ga rallies and condolences start ayyayi. Later on homicide ani teliyadam thi avi police and ciizens ki madhya riots la tayarayyayi.
Ee riots roju, roju ki violent ga tayaravuthunnayi, state mayor Jacob Frey kuda Floyd ki nyayam jaragalani, police officer ki siksha padalani support chesthunnaru. President Trump incident jarigina two days taruvata, twitter dwaara condolences teliparu and George Floyd family ki justice jarugthundi ani assurance icharu.
Ee issue ki world over nundi people and celebrities nundi support vastundhi. #Blacklivesmatter, #blackouttuesday ani ee issue ni raise chestunnaru.
How this should have been handled according to law :
Floyd counterfiet bills (fake currency) icchadanukundam, which is a crime daaniki athanni arrest cheyadam correctey and case register chesi investigate cheyali and appudu penalty veyali or punish cheyali.
But ikkada adhi jaragaledhu, Floyd ni handcuff chesi pin down chesyadam varaku okay, kaani 8 minutes 40 seconds oka manishi neck meedha antha pressure pettadam anavasaram..moreover Floyd paripovadaniki kuda try cheyaledhu.
Floyd repeated ga request chesadu tanu breathe teesukolekapothunnadu ani, chuttu unna people ki kuda ardham ayyindhi Floyd conidtion chusi that he is not able to breathe properly. Police Officers ki matram ardham kaaledu..basic ga ignore chesaru and Chauvin body language and eyes chusthe evarikaina ardham avuthundhi tanu intentional ga ekkuva sepu Floyd neck meedha pressure unchadu ani.
Asalu Dark skin ela evolve ayyindhi humans lo :
Dark skin anedhi melanin ane pigment mana skin lo ekkuva level lo undatam valana vasthundi. Chala years mundu..evolution process jaruguthunna time lo people oka place nundi inko place ki migrate avuthu undevaru.
Ala oka tropical condition lo unnappudu..high radiations and stong heat conditions lo skin anedhi body meedha nundi remove ayyi..pigmentation valana dark skin body ki attain ayyindhi.
Ilanti oka evolutional and natural process valana vachina body colour meedha slow ga discrimination and hate crimes start ayyayi. In the passing years, chala varaku ee hate crime taggina..inka ekkado adhi kona oopiritho bathikey undhi.
Facts :
1) George Floyd last 5 years ga oka restaurant lo security guard ga work chesthunnadu, kaani COVID-19 valla job loose ayipoyadu. 2007 lo oka robbery case lo 5 years jail ki velladu. Tanki iddaru daughters unnaru.
2) Derek Michael Chauvin, Minnesota police department lo 18 years ga work chestunnadu, ithani meedha inthaka mundu 18 compliants unnayi.
3) Interesting fact enti ante, ee iddaru okey night club ki security guards ga work chesaru in different shifts as told by the former owner of the club, but the owner doubts nothing fishy about it.
Ikkada inkoka main point enti ante, ilanti crimes only black people meedhey jaragatledhu..white people meedha kuda jarugthunnayi..kaani in a low percentage.
Life is important, be it black or white.
And aa violent riots valla public money ae waste avuthundhi, protesting is a right kaani peaceful ga chesukuntey better.
Irrespective of Colour, Gender, Cast, Religion andaru..”We are all equal” ane mind set ki vasthe, chala manchi changes chudochu manam society lo.
Let’s hope that justice would be served to George Floyd and no such crimes would repeat again in future.
