Les affaires de #ViolencesPolicières contre les #Afro-américains, ce n'est pas nouveau aux Etats-Unis. #TyreNichols, un homme de 29 ans, a été roué de coups par plusieurs #policiers de #Memphis le 7 janvier 2023. Il en est mort. Et une fois de plus, des milliers d' #Américains sont descendus dans la rue pour dénoncer ces actes racistes. Mais s'agit-il de #racisme ? La police américaine est-elle raciste ? On en parle.

À 6min50 #USA :

C'est une #Nation qui s'est fondée sur un #Génocide, tout d'abord, et puis dans son #histoire moderne aussi, sur l' #esclavage...
Charlotte #Recoquillon Spécialiste des Violences Policières aux #États-Unis - Institut Français de Géopolitique

C'est #ColineSerreau qui disait que « les USA sont construits sur 2 génocides, celui des #Africains et celui des #Amérindiens ». Je suis satisfait de voir que le propos est aussi validé par une experte de la question.

This is an interview with Shawn Sutton, a longtime resident of eastern NC, musician, and participant in and prisoner of the 2020 #uprising. John was also a participant in the rebellion, is a longtime #NC resident, and has been involved in anti- #prison organizing and prisoner support for around 15 years. He met Shawn through correspondence while she was at NCCIW in Raleigh. Shawn got out in February 2022, and the interview was conducted by phone in June 2022. If you’re able, please help Shawn with her reentry by CashApp at $SeckundChanse1.

Sapp hadn’t realized that if he had made the call, it wouldn’t necessarily have been the police who would have shown up. After the #GeorgeFloyd protests shook the country in 2020, #SanFrancisco started redirecting these sorts of 911 calls to paramedics and trained behavioral #health workers. The city’s new Street Crisis Response Team, which responds to unarmed adults in #crisis from mental illness, substance use, or #homelessness, tries to reduce interactions between the public and the #police, to prevent officers from reacting violently to people in these situations.

Nationwide, #cops fatally shoot hundreds of people experiencing mental health emergencies every year. The city’s crisis responders, by contrast, don’t carry #weapons. And they don’t have law enforcement backgrounds: Each three-person team includes a Fire Department paramedic, a behavioral health specialist, and a peer support counselor to help connect people with social services. In their vans, they store supplies like blankets, socks, snacks, Narcan, tampons, and toothbrushes. They respond to calls within 16 minutes on average, sometimes spending hours with a single person. Since November 2020, the team has fielded thousands of incidents—and, according to the Department of Public Health, which manages the project, not one has led to a death or an arrest, and fewer than 1 percent have led to #violence.

Die Ermordung von #GeorgeFloyd am 25. Mai 2020 durch den US-amerikanischen Polizisten Derek Chauvin in #Minneapolis hat zuerst in den #USA und dann innerhalb kurzer Zeit in vielen Teilen der Welt zu Massenprotesten sowie Revolten geführt. Diese Aufstände sind für die #Geschichte des #Antirassismus aus globaler Perspektive bisher einzigartig. In den USA übertrafen die Proteste und Unruhen selbst die Massenmobilisierungen nach der Ermordung von Dr. Martin Luther King im Jahre 1968, die auch die #BlackPower -Bewegung einleiteten. Zehntausende Menschen protestierten, in 40 Städten wurden Ausgangssperren verhängt, und in vielen Bundesstaaten kam die Nationalgarde zum Einsatz, um die #Proteste brutal zu unterdrücken. Hunderte wurden verhaftet.

Meinung: Zwei Jahre nach dem Tod von George Floyd - die USA am Scheideweg | DW | 25.05.2022

Neben dem Entsetzen gab es auch Hoffnung. Doch von der landesweiten Solidarisierung mit George Floyd ist zwei Jahre danach nichts mehr übrig. Im Gegenteil - das Land fällt immer weiter auseinander, meint Ines Pohl.#USA #Rassismus #GeorgeFloyd #Buffalo #ObersterGerichtshof

State vs. Derek Chauvin - Order Denying Motion

https://www.mncourts.gov/mncourtsgov/media/High-Profile-Cases/27-CR-20-12646/Order07132021.pdf

The State also notes social science research which it contends “demonstrates that ‘adults
view Black girls as less innocent and more adult-like than their white peers’” and suggests that
“observers discount the experiences of young Black girls” and perceive them “as needing less
protection and nurturing than white girls.” State’s July 7 Letter, at 2, 6. No evidence of any
such social science research was presented by the State to this Court prior to the June 25
sentencing. Be that as it may, it is the State that is injecting supposed racial presumptions in this
case, not this Court. This Court never mentioned in its Sentencing Memorandum Opinion the
racial or ethnic status of any of the observers at the scene on May 25 or of the three young
women and nine year-old J.R. who are the focus of the State’s July 17 Letter.
