May 25th, 2024 went by without much of a peep about the life of George Floyd. It was just 4 years prior that his public execution would ignite the American streets in fiery protests. A clarion call for thousands to head out to express their outrage over, not only his killing, but for police misconduct et all. It was bloated police budgets coupled with racist law enforcement that would be the culprit that needed to be either defunded, abolished, made more culturally aware, less racist, but what did we actually end up with?
The summer of 2020 saw millions of people taking action in the public square, in a demand for police accountability, defunding of police departments, and to call for reforms aimed at dismantling what was seen as systemic oppression faced by Black and marginalized communities. Why now, 4 years later after this period of protest has the conversation changed from law enforcement as the problem, to law enforcement is the solution?
Four years on, we take a critical look at where post COVID and George Floyd America stand. Have the promises of reform and justice been fulfilled, or have they fallen by the wayside? What tangible changes have been made, and what challenges remain?
