Resistance to Police Brutality and Racism in the US
Published 18 August 2014
Mainstream media goes out of its way to slander and stereotype black people and communities in the U.S. in a racist bid to justify violence against them.
The brutal killing of Michael Brown, the unarmed teenage boy shot six times a week ago by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, is a reminder of the widespread racism and violence that to date persists against minorities throughout the United States. It has also demonstrated that mainstream media still manipulates information to justify the violence of whites against blacks and other ethnic minorities, which it systematically slanders by portraying them as thugs, drug addicts, and uneducated people. teleSUR provides an unvarnished view of the problems that affect U.S. society and the obstacles and struggles of people of color in the United States.
