The black thugs that helped kill Tyre Nichols

jeudi 2 février 2023 à 12:02

Memphis published the names of the black thugs that helped to kill Tyre Nichols, but concealed until this week the name of the white thug who was involved, and what role he played.

This could represent bigotry. The report seem also seems to try to cover up some aspects of the thugs' violence.

Speaking of bigotry, the article displays symbolic bigotry by capitalizing "black" but not "white". (To avoid endorsing bigotry, capitalize both words or neither one.) Normally I do not link to articles that do this, but I make exceptions for some articles that I consider particularly important, such as the first one.

It should not be surprising that blacks can absorb from white society the widespread ideas of bigotry against blacks.

Ideas for what could make for a real change in the violence of thugs against blacks.
