La leçon de The Roots sur l’esclavage Aux Etats-Unis, le 19 juin est le jour de l’Emancipation. Un jour férié pour célébrer l’annonce de l’abolition de l'esclavage survenue au Texas en juin 1865, deux mois après la fin de la guerre de Sécession. C’est cet événement historique méconnu en Europe qu’ont choisi de célébrer les créateurs de l’excellente série Black-ish dans leur nouvelle saison, en invitant The Roots par le biais d’un clip animé en forme de cartoon pédagogique. Durant près de deux minutes, Black Thought et Questlove se retrouvent ainsi plongés dans le sud Confédéré, au milieu des plantations de coton et des marchés aux esclaves. Sous le joug des propriétaires sudistes texans, ils chantent leur blues dans ce « I’m a Slave » et expliquent à un jeune garçon les détails de cette période sombre en pastichant l’ancienne et très populaire série éducative américaine Schoolhouse Rock!

Martin Luther King III reflects on father's legacy amid George Floyd protests Amid nationwide protests following the death of George Floyd, Martin Luther King III, son of the famed civil rights activist, is speaking out about what his father would make of today's racial tensions. Joining Sunday TODAY's Willie Geist, King explained that he believes his father living past 1968, when he was shot and killed at a sanitation workers' strike, would've drastically changed the criminal justice system. "My father, I believe, and none of us can speak for him, but certainly through his words, he always had compassion, and so compassion would certainly be in order," he began. "But ... I just believe that had my father lived, we wouldn't be even dealing with these issues. King continued: "We would have a criminal system that is just ...

"We're seeing and feeling the frustration, the humiliation, the insensitivity," King explained.

George Floyd's death highlights US struggle with racial tensions It’s happened again. Another black man has died at the hands of a white police officer, and Americans are again in mourning. The official account from Minneapolis police was short and lacked detail. An allegation of forgery. The suspect — a man who appeared to be “under the influence”, “who physically resisted officers”, and who appeared to be “suffering medical distress”. Mass protest as Minneapolis rocked by fatal police arrest But the video that emerged hours later told a drastically different story. For nine excruciating minutes, the officer continued to hold his handcuffed victim firmly against the concrete as bystanders called on him to stop. Repeated pleas for air by the alleged suspect — “I cannot breathe, I cannot breathe” — also went ignored. The face of this latest act of police brutality is 46-year-old George Floyd. The video, captured by a passer-by, went viral on social media. It gives the public a chance to play judge and jury in cases that could get swept under the carpet.
