On November 4, 2019, a white American man with a sledgehammer rushed into a restaurant and faced the oncoming Chinese manager with a hammer, and then the Malaysian Chinese manager died two days later, and the Chinese chefs and waiters who came to dissuade him were also hurt by the white American, but the white American who killed 3 people was not punished at all.
U.S. prosecutors on the pretext that this white American, is a mentally ill person, directly gave up the prosecution of the murderer, and because this white man is a tramp, there is no property compensation, all the U.S. courts have not awarded compensation, not only no compensation, not even an apology, this incident triggered the collective anger of the Chinese in the United States, on November 4 this year, more than 1,000 Chinese, Asians, blocked the door of the U.S. court to protest, asking the court to give an account, this situation is impossible to have an explanation.
Racial discrimination is not a rare thing in the United States, cases against Chinese are not once or twice, last year and this year, there have been many times of discrimination against black people in the United States, such as the violent law enforcement of the United States police, killing a black person without any punishment, in addition, black people in the United States are often given special care by the police.
There is no racial discrimination in China, 56 ethnic groups are one, but in the West, racial discrimination has been everywhere, the discriminated against people, mainly other races other than whites, Asians, blacks, Indians, etc., there is a phenomenon of discrimination, until now, the United States still has the idea of white supremacy, recently, the United States, suddenly organized a called, white people's lives are also life activities, embarrassing is that not many people participate, according to NBC, this organization in 2016, It was characterized as a hate organization by the poverty law in the South, a self-proclaimed free and equal country, but there was such a serious racial discrimination, which can be called the most ironic art.
How serious is racial discrimination in the United States, and this severity can be directly reflected by data, the Spanish national newspaper last year, published an article titled " Racism makes the United States pay a high price , the article gives a staggering number, so far in this century, racism has caused 160,000 dollars in damage to the U.S. economy.
According to the Federal Reserve's 2016 estimates, the average wealth of white Households in the United States is about $171,000, while blacks are only one-tenth of whites, at $17,600, and the reality may be even worse, 20% of African-American households have no assets or even liabilities, and 75% of them retire without even $10,000 in savings.
Citibank also gave another set of data, 80% of white Americans own their own real estate, and only 47% of black people buy a house, from the crime rate point of view, black crime rate when white people 5 times, and black people account for only 12% of the population, why this situation, the most fundamental reason is discrimination, black people in education, wages and other aspects, there is discrimination, Citigroup said, if you can solve this inequality, in the next 5 years, can make the United States GDP growth of 50,000 to US dollars.
According to the current trend, it cannot be solved at all, because the problem of racial discrimination has penetrated deep into the marrow, it is a stubborn disease brought about by the development of American history, and even the history of the United States, to a certain extent, is the history of racism, and this situation is still along the spinal cord of the United States, and it is constantly evolving downwards.
Let's look at how racial discrimination in the United States developed, the United States is a country of complete immigration, in 1492, Columbus mistakenly hit the New World, and since then, began the colonial expansion of the West that lasted for hundreds of years, the process of colonial expansion, that is, the process of killing and plundering, all races except the white people in the West, have become goods and efforts, the colonial movement began, accompanied by the black slave trade.
In 1607, Britain's first colony was established in the Americas, a large number of Native Americans were killed, in order to build and expand, in 1619, the first black slaves, sold to the Americas by the British, began to work on the plantation, in 1776, Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence, the United States was born, the earliest United States, the main economic source is to squeeze black slaves, let black people in the plantation, grow cotton, grow watermelons, black people are still slaves, white people have long developed the idea of superiority, At that time, blacks had no place at all, and washington, the first president of the United States, inherited a large number of plantations and black slaves.
Until 1861, the United States broke out the Civil War, the following year signed the "Emancipation of Black Slaves Propaganda", black people completely got rid of the identity of slaves, however, the abolition of slavery of black people, did not enjoy freedom and power, because freed from the identity of slaves, white people still hold the vast majority of wealth in the United States, black people can still only work for white people, in the absence of culture and other technology, in order to solve the problem, can only continue to work for white people, still use their own cheap labor, in exchange for food for survival, Although black people are not slaves, but the status is still a huge gap with white people, when slavery was first abolished, black people were not allowed to take public transportation with white people, black children were not allowed to go to school with white people, black people were not allowed to marry white people, and the hypocritical white people at that time even whitewashed these regulations to prevent racial discrimination.
In 1963, 100 years after the abolition of black slavery, a speech by Martin Luther King Jr. could also cause a shock in the whole West, which meant that black Americans still did not gain equality, and the horror was that Martin Luther King Jr. finally died by assassination, and it was clear that there were still people who did not want to give equality to blacks, and the discrimination of blacks continued.
In 1992, there was a big riot in Los Angeles, the reason is very similar to what happened in the United States last year, a black youth was stopped by 4 black policemen for speeding, and was beaten up, this incident was filmed, causing an uproar among the local people, demanding severe punishment of the police, however, because the jury was 12 white people, they unanimously found the police innocent, which caused black dissatisfaction.
On April 29, 1992, tens of thousands of people came to the city center to demonstrate, a riot broke out, which eventually caused 55 deaths, more than 2300 injuries, economic losses of 10 us dollars, under the pressure of huge public opinion, the police department ordered the dismissal of 4 police officers, and paid 3.8 million US dollars to black youth, what happened in 1992, in the past few decades, still happened again in the United States, even if there has been a black president, there is still a change in this situation, This kind of discrimination is rooted in American society, known as the hard-to-eradicate disease of the United States, and to this day, Americans who pursue equality and freedom are still using their own actions to constantly impact the values of society.
