Joe Biden has urged Americans to protest peacefully, and to not let their anger over the death of George Floyd at the hands of law enforcement officers overshadow the “reason we protest.”
He highlighted that people nationwide are suffering the losses of loved ones due to “intolerable circumstances,” including “entrenched inequalities” as well as COVID-19, which still grips the U.S. with a heavy death toll of 105,000. “And I know that a grief that dark and deep may at times feel too heavy to bear. I know,” he said.
Earlier in the week, during a Memorial Day event, Biden hit out at President Donald Trump, calling him an “absolute fool” for not wearing a face mask during a CNN interview. “We cannot and must not allow a small group of criminals and vandals to wreck our cities and lay waste to our communities,” Trump continued.These last few days have laid bare that we are a nation furious at injustice. Every person of conscience can understand the rawness of the trauma people of color experience in this country, from the daily indignities to the extreme violence, like the horrific killing of George Floyd.
