हि लिंक आहे त्या घटनेची.अमेरिकेतल्या नेटिझन्सनी #BlackLivesMatter #JusticeForGeorgeFlyod hashtags ने आपला निषेध नोंदवला. अमेरिकेतील अनेक सेलिब्रिटी टेलर स्विफ्ट, लेडी गागा, रिहाना, बिली एलिश, विल स्मिथ यांनी social media द्वारे आपला संताप व्यक्त केला 2/16
विशेष म्हणजे यातले बरेच जण स्वतः White आहेत पण पोटतिडकीने या विषयावर व्यक्त झाले.यानंतर देशभरात काही आंदोलनाच्या घटना घडल्या. ट्रम्पने पुन्हा एक ट्विट करून looting असेल तर shooting होईल अशी दर्पोक्ती केली. हा ट्विट म्हणजे वर्णभेदी आणि स्त्रीद्वेषी ट्रम्पच्या असंवेदनशीलतेचा 3/16
