America is Uprising || Protests against Racism Continue Across the United States

Demonstrations against police discrimination against Black Americans on the eighth night and have spread to many cities

A curfew has been imposed in 40 cities following the violence, but protesters have walked out despite curfews in several cities.

In addition, George Floyd's hometown of Houston hosted a peaceful march with his family today, with an expected 20,000 participants.

In addition to the United States, there have been demonstrations in several European countries, such as Paris and London, against the assassination of George Floyd and the racist treatment of black people by police in the United States.

Protests erupted last week after the Death of A Black American, George Floyd. He was accused of twice trying to make a purchase at a grocery store with a fake 20$ bill. The police officer who arrested George Floyd laid him on the ground and put his knee on his neck, which resulted in his death.

Curfews have been imposed in 40 different cities to control the situation, but the situation has not been brought under control. The Pentagon says 1,600 troops have been deployed to air bases around Washington and are on high alert. Troops have been sent to Washington to help law enforcement, with the Pentagon saying the deployment is aimed at helping civilian officials maintain peace.

Images have surfaced from cities in several states where police are seen showing solidarity with protesters.

Floyd's Death refreshes the deep wounds of racism and racism perpetrated by police in the United States. The incident follows the assassination of Michael Brown in Ferguson and the assassination of Eric Garner in New York. It should be noted that after the last two murders, there was a campaign like #BlackLivesMatter which means 'the lives of black people are also important'. For many, this wave of resentment reflects the frustration caused by years of socio-economic inequality and the isolation of different races.

Criticism of Trump over the picture with the Bible

Religious leaders in the United States have condemned President Trump for taking a picture of himself carrying a Bible in front of a church. According to the French news agency AFP, the US President took a picture in front of the church when the peaceful protesters were dispersed by throwing tear gas shells near the White House. "It was painful and very heartbreaking in the sense that a sacred object was misused for a political message," Marion Bud, bishop of Epschool Church in Washington, told Radio NPR.
