The long-awaited murder trial of Derek Chauvin started today and as far as I'm concerned, America is on trial right along with him. We have been waiting a long time for change and justice to come from all of the brutality and lives lost over the decades at the hands of police.
From The Late Rodney King, who was the first to have his savage beating recorded on video for the world to see on March 3, 1991, to The Late George Floyd and beyond, because more have been beaten and murdered since his death last year... justice MUST prevail.
And, we can't forget about young black males like Elijah McClain. He was described as "different" and possibly autistic. He was murdered by the police simply because he was misunderstood, and there are others like him who suffered the same fate.
All you need to know is how long Chauvin kneeled on Floyd, and the paramedics had to physically remove him when they arrived on the scene because he continued to kneel on him after they got there. Chauvin made a conscious decision to end Floyd's life and he did... period!
