Armed racism keeps no one safe

“What’s going on?” he asks, over and over, as the armed crazy guy screams at him. This is beyond any hope of “reform.” A completely different form of public safety and order must emerge, transcending this armed authoritarianism with deeply racist roots, i.e., the slave patrols. Rethinking public safety begins here. And we certainly don’t need armed enforcement of laws against expired license plates and such, any more than we need police departments stocked with tanks and MRAPs and other surplus military equipment. I don’t know what the answer is, but I do know this much: The nation’s infrastructure repair involves more than highways and bridges.

Surgeon general uses inhaler to explain racial divide during coronavirus pandemic

Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams said on Friday that it is alarming, but it’s not surprising that minorities are having a higher mortality rate during the coronavirus pandemic. Adams said it’s not because they are genetically predisposed to get COVID-19, the highly contagious respiratory illness caused by the new coronavirus. “The chronic burden of medical ills is likely to make people of color especially less resilient to the ravages of COVID-19," Adams said. In Chicago, about 30% of the population identified as black, yet about 70% of the COVID-19 patients who died are black. In Milwaukee, about 26% of the population identified as black, yet 66% of the patients who died are black.
