Det amerikanske kastesystem
”Manden på jorden blev stille, drænet for luft. En klar væske sneg sig ned ad asfalten. Med vores blotte øjne så vi en mand blive dræbt. Hvad vi imidlertid ikke så, i hvert fald ikke med det samme, var det usynlige skafot, et kastesystem med ældgamle regler og antagelser, der gjorde en sådan rædsel mulig, der fastholdt hver enkelt af scenens skuespillere i sit greb”. New York Times Magazine skriver langt – meget langt – men gribende om den systemiske racisme i USA og de skjulte strukturer, der gør den til et vedvarende problem.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - JULY 01: A group of protesters affiliated with Black Lives Matter (BLM) and other groups congregate in a park and adjoining street outside of City Hall in Lower Manhattan as they continue to demand that the New York City Police Department (NYPD) be defunded on July 1, 2020 in New York City. Despite a recent City Council vote that passed a new budget making significant cuts to the police department, the group of protesters continue their standoff with the city and the police. Similar to the Occupy Wall Street movement that took over Zuccotti Park for months, the group is now making food, medical and information stations available to assist those protesters that want to stay.
