In this article, the authors make a distinction between urban uprisings of earlier eras and the upheaval that has unfolded in the streets of America since the murders of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd by police officers in Louisville, Kentucky and Minneapolis, Minnesota. The authors wonder whether or not there is a correlation between these multiethnic/racial uprisings and non-Black residents' commitment to eradicating racism, especially when it comes to tackling problems that disproportionately impact African Americans.
在本文中,作者对早期时代的城市起义与自肯塔基州路易斯维尔市和明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯市警察杀害布雷娜·泰勒和乔治·弗洛伊德以来在美国街头爆发的动乱进行了区分。作者们想知道这些多民族/种族起义与非黑人居民根除种族主义的决心之间是否存在关联,尤其是在解决那些对非裔美国人影响尤为严重的问题方面。
