The protests are still going on, a high percentage of those peacefully. Some cops kneel with protesters, march with them. White protesters form chains in front of black protesters to protect them from police. Black protesters block access to stores to keep looters out.
More cell phones every day out there document what is really going on, whether in protests or police actions, preventing the few rotten eggs from triumphing. When even the shame doesn't stop a murder from happening, it's starting to force prosecutions. Perhaps it will even bring imprisonments.
Whatever Putin's minions are working to do here to seed upheaval, enough to destroy this nation, so far it's not working. (Hey, if you don't believe, go ahead and do the actual work of reading the Mueller Report. I mean, sitting at home, time on your hands, bored.... Right?)
More people are recognizing Trump's serious flaws. Some never will, of course.
I just watched a video of our grandchild's kindergarten virtual graduation. Six small classes in one school, each child having their first name and photo included, taken at home and holding their diploma. I was blown away in awe at the widely diverse classes, the unique names, races and ethnicities, even the acceptance of a headscarf under the mortorboard cap. When all these children can play and learn together, racism hardly stands a chance.
Not all means success. But it does bring hope.
