Those who argue that Black Lives Matter protesters are jumping on an American bandwagon wilfully miss the point, says academic Kojo Koram

It’s October 2019, and bestselling authors Douglas Murray and Lionel Shriver take to the stage for an event at Central Hall Westminster. Part of the way through their talk, Murray begins to rail against the 2016 British Black Lives Matter protests and what he sees as “the globalisation of a specific American racial issue”.

They usually recruit the former servicemen into the police and some of those new recruits served in Iraq and Afghanistan killing civilians. Old habits die hard. It is payback time?

I’m shocked not blackoutuesday and british are fucking racists.

Dozens of black people have died during some sort of interaction with the police over the years, and they all have one thing in common- they all tried to resist arrest. So to all black parents out there tell your kids - DONT RESIST! You will live to fight another day.

Socialists believe police brutality is essential though.

Utter cobblers.

Overall you will find racism in all countries and societies it’s that people expect more from Western/Colonial society but in truth people are treat much worse in other countries than they are in Uk the problem is labels people are people

Revenge hypothesis article

And every other nation and race in the world yes

Knife crime as well...

No, problem of all countries today.

I just saw the Rudy and Morgan interview. how about you people across the pond keep your opinions to yourself when I as a New Yorker see my city burn. You are not here, it's not happening to you!

TheRealKMcKidd Where's Lucius Vorenus when you need him?

Bullshit, work hard and make something of yourself. There are no free rides now!!!

Just going to leave this here again...

You know british police are on twitter arresting people for being racist please tell me again how Britain is racist.

Truth.

1969 was the last time (UK) a police officer was prosecuted for a death in police custody. Just let that fact sink in.

Police Shooting 2019 (Source WaPo & FBI) - 371 killed by police were white - 236 killed by police were African Americans - 10 unarmed African Americans were fatally shot by police - 48 police were murdered

Mask persons in car trying to setup blacks by handing out bricks.

Anti-white racism does seem extreme in the UK.

There’s neither black red yellow or white, life is in the blood and that colour my friends is RED and we all have RED BLOOD💕

Has anybody offered a semblance of solution for this obvious systemic problem, or is this just a neverending shouting match?

True. Racist slur against players are very common especially in Stamford Bridge.

Zzzz

Those pumping this rhetoric are evil. They are actually teaching hate, not love. They are using people. Martin Luther King taught the healthy way to address discrimination and it worked. Popular culture took up the call. Discriminate against bad manners and poor attitude.

Harvard real owner, General Chuav Chewaeia Chewazi had to leave USA for a PADANDA police Havildaar, a DEATH THIEF FROM IMBARI-AMBARI Taetari of TAANDDHA! He told only that He was Not a Human Being but a Lord!

again, BIDRAZI and BIDARZI issues, not only COLOR issue! Previously, DEATH THIEVES and LINDDEES&LINDDAAS&LUDDIGIRi was only in the East and West was mostly full of Plitipiaraas alo who were immortal!The Death got being transferred to west and the BIDRAZI&BIDARZI&BIDARBAZBAZDI!😑

Germany is worse than British

This article is insane racism

Nice Gloves ! They are NOT legal in Germany !

Absolute bollocks but, you continue to divide

Don't y'all have dozens of special interests groups over there? Not even affirmative action?

Not just against blacks mind you. Brown folk have been brutally treated by the master piggy pink race too

Do you remember Rotherham? I think Police was very liberal there.

unless this man here is Michael Jackson abstain from mentioning systemic racism please

As is covid19 but hey, who cares about that now?

That is true.

This is the complete opposite of the truth. Stop lying to black people.

Oh Sod off...Look at the black on black racism and killings, Racist lunatic.

oh really ? go to north Africa if you wanna see racism against blacks ..
