Why the George Floyd Uprising Was So Easily Forgotten
When I first learned of George Floyd's passing, I clearly recall it. When my partner inquired about whether I had heard about the latest police shooting of a Black man, I assumed he meant Tony McDade, a Black Trans man who was killed two days later. Since I had already seen the videos of numerous Black men and women being killed by the police that year, I was perplexed by the sudden concern that people had for Floyd. I was relieved that people seemed to care about this incident, even though I didn't understand why it was enough to shake my fellow white people out of our complacency in the face of a sea of injustices. In those earlier protests, a lot of connections were made, even what initially seemed to be a desire to alter policing (e.g., the Defund the Police movement). Then, nothing changed: a lot of ink was spilled, names were changed, monuments were replaced, some token legislation was passed, and the situation stayed the same. Everyone was waiting to see what America would do. America stared in horror at systemic racism before quickly turning its head away.
