The United States of America is officially a de-racialized society after several landmark revolutionary transformations, the Emancipation, desegregation and the civil rights movement.
The civil rights movement swept away segregation, but it looks like the criminalisation of race has taken over from segregation as the new form of racist attitudes.
The protests are part of the recurring social movements that accompany the ever-resurging manifestations of racism.
Each time the horrors of an undying racism of the type that was observed in the unfortunate case of George Floyd manifest, we observe more of the same type of social movement.
Every time a person is treated like Floyd, the moral conscience of the society in question will be pricked because everybody could be treated in the same way with the same excuses.
