最近的美國不平靜⋯⋯
因為一位執法過當的白人警察,
非裔美籍的George Floyd在不斷哀求”I Can’t Breathe!”之中斷氣過世。
全美各州陸續出現抗議、衝突、暴動、甚至劫掠,
美國的政治情勢也因此有所改變。
各方針對該警官的行為嚴加譴責,
Nike罕見把自家的標語”Just do it!”改成”Don’t do it!”,
連對手Adidas也分享認同,
迪士尼發文呼籲抵制種族歧視(racism),
TED talk及其他有影響力的媒體均團結立場,
捐款、簽名請願活動開始發起,

英文稿全文:
Eric Garner, Michael Brown and Tamir Rice, three African-Americans who have recently died at the hands of white police officers, have become the rallying chants of protesters in the US demanding police reforms.
The first wave of protests began the day following the fatal shooting of Chris Brown, an unarmed 18-year-old black man, by a police officer in the state of Missouri on August 9, 2014. The protests soon turned violent in the subsequent weeks with hundreds of people being arrested for arson, looting, and vandalism.The governor of Missouri declared a state of emergency and called in the national guards in an effort to maintain order. However, violent riots once again erupted late November, when a grand jury declined to indict the white officer who fatally shot Brown. Thousands of people in more than 170 US cities rallied to protest the grand jury's decision. Protests also took place internationally, with demonstrations held in several major cities in Canada and the United Kingdom.
The latest wave of protests took place last week in New York, San Francisco, Boston and other cities after a grand jury announced it had declined to indict the police officer who fatally choked Eric Garner, another unarmed African American who died at the hands of a white police officer in New York on July 17, 2014. A police officer put Garner in a chokehold after he argued with the officer over the suspected sale of illegal cigarettes. Garner was pronounced dead approximately one hour later at the hospital.
Protesters are also marching over the death of Tamir Rice, an African American teenager at the age of 12, in Ohio. Rice was fatally shot by a police officer on November 22 after allegedly reaching for a toy gun in his waistband. The police officer fired two shots within two seconds of arriving on the scene, hitting Rice once in the torso. Rice died on the day after the shooting.
Most of the thousands currently protesting in the US have peacefully marched through streets, sometimes blocking traffic or laying silently on sidewalks, mall floors, and college campuses. More protests are planned this week, including a march in Washington, D.C. Saturday to pressure Congress to hold hearings and pass laws that will better protect minorities from police brutality.

武漢肺炎我受到的種族歧視經歷 | 加拿大華人 [有證據]
早前看了一條 ‘疫症掀起加拿大種族歧視’ 影片由加拿大Youtuber住加男人同李婉華講加拿大溫哥華有亞裔人士買快餐疑似被歧視.
“You dropped your coronavirus” 是一條網上瘋傳影片: 一名白人男人向一個華裔女士說歧視的説話.
看到這些影片初時沒想那麼多. 因為生活在加拿大二十多年(I’ve never been racist’d before)
直到作天...
(Tell story of you went to coffee shop, a lot of people’s expression already was weird. And has been for a couple of days.
The receptionist had like a frightened look on her face.
It was crowded then when I sat at table, slowly in a span of 15 minutes everyone next to me slowly left. And then their were 3 other people who came into the store after me. 2 girls one guy. 2 girls didn’t buy anything and left. One guy bought a coffee and left. I was the only who stayed in the store and worked.
Before I showed a photograph of me sick on Instagram and I said everyone at the doctors clinic look at me in fear. That sort of fear...and somewhat I guess made me not want to wear a mask. And I know it’s not a good role model thing to do. But I don’t want to be treated like those people at the fast food.
Even the other day at the gym and was running, an employee was cleaning the place and she literally stood behind me and waited for me to finish so she could wipe my machine.
Like. This makes me not want to go anywhere. Even today I chose to work out a home. Because of that.
加拿大肺炎爆發點在多倫多. 1月22號一名由武漢剛旅遊完的50多歲男人經廣州飛回多倫多.輕mei感冒症狀的他23號被送到Sunnybrook醫院確認有2019-nCov病毒. 之後他的妻子也positive有該病毒.
他們sing dap的China southern airlines CZ311號機有17位人士被觀察, jam時未有新的染病者.
雖然發生在我住的城市. 但好消息是31號該名男子已經能離開醫院. 在家休息. 而醫療人員會繼續觀察他的病情. 所以是有希望的. 大家一起加油吧!
剛説的歧視, 如果不是帶攻擊性的話, 我不生氣...是可以理解的. 這些問題應該很快就會過.
