George Perry
Floyd, a human being like you and me, had his life being ended unnecessarily in
Minneapolis, USA on May 25, 2020. We are
all human beings, right? We do not mention ourselves as black human beings and
white human beings. But once we declare ourselves as people of the world then
the degrading starts; black man, white man, yellow man, brown man, blue man,
green man, purple man, beige man, they are calling. What nonsense! How stupid
can human beings get!
Talking
about the color of the people, I do not really think George Floyd became
a victim because he was black. And there is no reason for thousands of people
to protest with “Black Lives Matter!” banners. It is not that the white people
are superior to the black people and the black people are inferior. You will
note that even the white Americans are disillusioned with that tragic incident,
where a white policeman leg pressed the neck and stopped the breath of that unfortunate human being,
George Floyd.
Yes, lives matter, but not only the lives of black people. It is
the lives of all of the minority people in a nation that matter. The race which
is the majority in the populace of any country will always trample upon the
minority race living in that country. The majority ‘feels’ superior and the
minority are being forced to give in to them, grudgingly most of the times. Unfortunately, in USA,
the black people are in the minority – about 13%. The Hispanics and Latino
Americans are ethnic minorities making
up of about 18%. The police are in the majority.
Look at the
countries around you ,In fact, I can
say in all the countries of the world, the majority is always feeling more
advantaged than the minority and their actions follow their emotions.
What the disadvantaged
people should be shouting is “Minorities' Lives Matter! And they should be
doing this around the world, whenever and wherever, they are being trodden on.
My fellow
human being, George Floyd, I am sure you have opened the eyes of many people
who are in their own domain. As the majority they have to respect the wishes and yearnings of
the minority and not to trod upon them as they liked. God bless your soul, brother!
