The number of victims could not be stopped even after the lockdown. In this situation, US President Donald Trump has repeatedly called for a lockdown. One shocking piece of information after another came up about American police torture around racism. Another black man named El Derrick Oli Scott died in connection with the assassination of George Floyd. The video, released by Oklahoma City Police went viral recently. Seeing that, the Americans are blowing in anger again. The video of Derrick's death was shot on a policeman's body camera. After all this time, the video came back like a boomerang for the police. The video shows a white policeman kneeling at Derrick's neck, just like George. According to police reports, Derrick was asked to surrender for illegal possession of firearms. The policeman is sitting there with his knees pressed to Derrick's neck. After so many days, the storm of criticism has started again as soon as the video came out. Even in the very recent past in America, George is just another name. 2013 to 2019 - In these 8 years, 6 black people have died at the hands of the police in America. Blacks make up 13 percent of America's population. People of all races have joined in the protest against George's assassination. Video-pictures of one old incident after another is coming up from that source. Not a single month has gone by in these years when the Americans have not killed a black person anywhere by the police. On average, one black person has been 'murdered' in 28 days. In 2019, 1014 people were killed in police firing in America. Most of those killed in police shootings were black Americans. Blacks in California, Florida, and Texas have been subjected to horrific police brutality.
