From El Paso to Buffalo, the shooting, the hate-messaging, the condemnation and the moving on have become nauseatingly familiar. Yet, the Buffalo killings are important in their political impact, and in understanding what deep recesses of the internet are doing to American society. ,Payton Gendron is an 18-year-old white male. He is under probe for having written something allegedly problematic at school. On Saturday, the teen who is said to have defined himself as “a white supremacist and a fascist,” according to a BBC report, set out with an assault rifle, walked into a primarily black neighbourhood in Buffalo, New York, and started shooting first outside and then inside a supermarket all the while running a live stream on social media. ,Ten people died in the attack and Buffalo mayor Byron Brown said the suspect arrived to take “as many black lives as possible.” Mayor Brown also said the Buffalo killings will be a turning point. “I believe what happened in Buffalo, New York yesterday is going to be a turning point. I think it’s going to be different after this, in terms of energy and the activity we see.” ,Before the rampage, the suspect, authorities said, posted a 180-page ‘manifesto’ articulating the ‘white replacement theory’. The theory posits that a cabal of global elites is trying to destroy white nations, via the systematic replacement of white populations. Jason Stanley, a professor of philosophy at Yale University, writing for the Guardian, states white replacement theory that the roots of white replacement theory go back to the Nazi regime. ,White replacement theory also states that Jews are enablers of this white replacement, which they do by supporting causes such as Black Lives Matter and NAACP. Nearly 29 pages of Gendron’s manifesto deal with Jewish support for non-white races. The section ends with Gendron’s manifesto saying: “Jews are spreading ideas such as Critical Race Theory and white shame/guilt to brainwash Whites into hating themselves and their people.”,Working as lone wolves, the white supremacists out for blood are not without an ideological framework. Gendron’s 180-page manifesto acknowledges Brenton Tarrant, the man who killed 51 people at a mosque in New Zealand’s Christchurch in 2019. Tarrant too had a manifesto which, like Gendron’s, decried the “white genocide” that will supposedly take place as a result of low fertility rates among whites and high fertility rates among non-white immigrants. Gendron’s manifesto, however, is an American version with references to Jim Crow and lynching. ,The Buffalo killings are not just similar to the Christchurch attack, but to a string of others.

LeBron James teamed up with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh to form a Miami Heat super team that reached four straight finals, winning a pair of championships. Then came the ascension of Steph Curry’s fling-it-up-from anywhere Golden State Warriors, who claimed three titles of their own and shredded all conventional wisdom on how far from the basket constituted a good shot. There were also significant developments happening away from the court. With James, Curry and others setting the tone, NBA players increasingly led a clarion call for social justice in the 2010s. James and Wade posed in hoodies with their Miami teammates for a dramatic picture protesting the shooting death of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin. Chris Paul and Jamal Crawford staged a silent protest that helped lead the NBA to issue a lifetime ban against Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling over racist comments that were caught on tape. Players across the league donned “I Can’t Breathe” T-shirts -- the last words of Eric Garner before his death after being placed in a chokehold by a New York City police officer. The players of the WNBA also stepped up their activism, from wearing shirts that proclaimed “Black Lives Matter” to kneeling during the national anthem to show solidarity with Colin Kaepernick’s NFL campaign against police violence. They even campaigned against one of their owners in a U.S. Senate election. “I will not just shut up and dribble,” James said, in what could very well be the mantra of the decade. “I mean too much to so many kids that feel like they don’t have a way out and they need someone to help lead them out of the situation they’re in.”,A decade of social activism merged seamlessly into America's racial reckoning in the summer of 2020, which again found the NBA in the middle of things. That shouldn't have been a surprise, given the NBA has generally scored better than North America’s other men's sports leagues on racial and gender equity issues. As the decade ended and the world was struck by a new scourge -- the COVID-19 pandemic -- the players of the NBA and WNBA only grew louder. The deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery led to massive protests not seen since the 1960s, a cause that both leagues embraced while completing their seasons in a bubble to cope with the deadly virus. Not even the closed-off world at Disney could stifle the NBA’s rank-and-file. When Jacob Blake, a Black man, was shot by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, a Milwaukee Bucks-led protest prompted players to walk off the court in the middle of the playoffs -- a movement that sparked similar protests in other sports and received widespread support from the NBA’s largely white coaches and owners. The players have vowed to turn symbolic gestures of the past decade into real change in the years to come, tackling crucial issues such as voting rights in response to many states changing access to the election booth. NBA arenas were transformed into massive voting precincts during the 2020 election, allowing citizens to cast their ballots in person while maintaining social distancing guidelines amid a raging pandemic that has killed millions around the globe. If the players have their way, that's only the start. There's so many things on their to-do list for the next decade. “We need to back the words up with action,” Young said. “I hope the world feels the same way.”","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_IAxzIxai2.jpg","role":2},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"38.9072","longitude":"-77.0369","name":"Washington D.C., DC, USA","city":"Washington"},"keywords":"NBA, activism, LeBron James, Black Lives matter, Steph Curry, Chris Paul, Jamal Crawford","originalPublishedOn":"2022-04-06T08:45:00+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"jDgkzNLyOZxq","slug":"george-floyds-4-year-old-niece-shot-in-houston-home-on-new-years-day","title":"George Floyd's 4-year-old niece shot in Houston home on New Year's Day","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_03o1sy6YxIX.jpg","coverCaption":"George Floyd's four-year-old niece, Arianna Floyd, was shot on Saturday.

Here are some of the best of these ideas: 1. Customer retention After the struggle that brands faced throughout 2020, in 2021, brands placed greater emphasis on retaining existing customers. \\u201cIt is considered wise to focus on existing customers in an uncertain economy.\\u201d, says Pravin Chandan. This was achieved through methods such as personalized push notifications, loyalty incentives, etc. This strategy was also more cost-effective than bringing in new customers owing to the availability of data with brands.

Selling on social media Another trending idea with far-reaching implications is selling on social media. Facebook and Instagram both came out with their in-app Shops, which allow for customers to shop directly on the apps.

Here are some of the best of these ideas: 1. Customer retention After the struggle that brands faced throughout 2020, in 2021, brands placed greater emphasis on retaining existing customers. “It is considered wise to focus on existing customers in an uncertain economy.”, says Pravin Chandan. This was achieved through methods such as personalized push notifications, loyalty incentives, etc. This strategy was also more cost-effective than bringing in new customers owing to the availability of data with brands. This was particularly used by small brands as it was their only leverage against big brands during this period. 2. Selling on social media Another trending idea with far-reaching implications is selling on social media. Facebook and Instagram both came out with their in-app Shops, which allow for customers to shop directly on the apps. It is expected that this trend will grow in the coming years due to the ease in search and conversion of customers. The growth of selling on social media has allowed marketers to advertise their products to a vast range of consumers at once. 3. Statements of purpose This year, brands along with consumers took stances on social justice issues and current events and incorporated them into their marketing. For example, the Black Lives Matter movement which began last year resulted in several brands ensuring inclusion efforts. Most brands also followed this up with continued efforts. This mattered greatly to consumers who cared deeply about the purpose behind the brands. 4. Automation in marketing Automation is a wonderful marketing tactic to reduce the budget while at the same time, increasing efficiency. Its uses have increased manifold during the pandemic. “This year, more and more companies indulged in automation as it frees employees from mundane and routine tasks and gives them more time to focus on creative and novel ideas,” says Pravin Chandan.

It also analyzes conversions once the campaign is done, thereby helping in future conversions. The importance of automation in marketing grew rapidly this year as manual processes were inadequate to keep up with the vast changes taking place around the world. 5. User-generated content User-generated content has become one of the most popular marketing ideas and with good reason.

It results in building of trust in a brand as most consumers rely on the experiences of others when making a purchasing decision. Therefore, this marketing idea has turned into the most valuable marketing idea of this period of time. User-generated content was showcased using hashtags wherein people can simply click on the hashtag to see content from those using the brand's products or services. 6. Interactive content Mainstream marketing ideas like video marketing are still extremely valuable, but in 2021, interactive content proved to be just as important. It increases the engagement rates of brands allowing the audience to directly interact with the content and brand through quizzes, polls, etc. 7. Augmented Reality Virtual reality (VR) is generating a lot of buzz and getting people excited about science-fiction ideas. AR, on the other hand, is significantly more marketable. This technology is continually being used by businesses to improve customer satisfaction and earn revenue. “By the end of 2022, it is expected that 70% of businesses will be experimenting with the usage of augmented reality (AR) as part of their marketing strategies.”, says Pravin Chandan. 8.

The 18-year-old was acquitted for killing two people, Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, and injuring a third, Gaige Grosskreutz, at the Black Lives Matter protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The protests had erupted in the aftermath of the shooting of a Black man, Jacob Blake, by a white police officer in August 2020. ,During the panel discussion held at the Phoenix Convention Center to discuss these shootings, Rittenhouse was welcomed with chants of his name from the audience - consisting mostly of the youth - as they gave him a standing ovation, according to a Newsweek report.

Then he shot and killed Anthony Huber, testifying that he opened fire after Huber struck him in the neck with his skateboard and grabbed his rifle. When a third man, Gaige Grosskreutz, “lunges at me with his pistol pointed directly at my head,” Rittenhouse shot him, too, wounding him. “I didn’t intend to kill them, I intended to stop the people who were attacking me, Rittenhouse said. Also read: Olympics birthplace revived by augmented reality project,Much of the testimony was centered on the first shooting of the night, since it was Rosenbaum's death that set in motion that bloodshed that followed. Rittenhouse said he was walking toward a Car Source lot with a fire extinguisher to put out a fire when “I hear somebody scream, ‘Burn in hell!’ And I respond with ‘Friendly, friendly, friendly!’”,He said Rosenbaum was running at him from one side and another protester with a gun in front of him, “and I was cornered. He said that's when he began to run. He said another protester, Joshua Ziminski, told Rosenbaum, “Get him and kill him.”,Rittenhouse said he heard a gunshot directly behind him, and as he turned around, Rosenbaum was coming at him with his arms out in front of him. “I remember his hand on the barrel of my gun, Rittenhouse said. “I shoot him, he recounted. He also said he thought the object Rosenbaum threw during the chase — a plastic hospital bag — was the chain he had seen Rosenbaum carrying earlier. Rittenhouse said he intended to help Rosenbaum but was in shock as someone else attended to him. Rittenhouse said he thought the “safest option” was to turn himself in to police who were on nearby. When defense attorney Mark Richards asked Rittenhouse why he didn’t keep running away from Rosenbaum, he said: “There was no space for me to continue to run to.”,Rittenhouse said that earlier that night, Rosenbaum was holding a chain and had twice threatened to kill him. Apologizing to the court for his language, Rittenhouse said Rosenbaum was walking down the street with the chain and screamed, “If I catch any of you (expletives) alone I’m going to (expletive) kill you!,And later that night, he testified, Rosenbaum said: “I’m going to cut your (expletive) hearts out! Rittenhouse said Rosenbaum also called them “N-words. But he said he didn't want to repeat the word in court. As he first took the stand, Rittenhouse responded no when asked by his attorney whether he came to Kenosha looking for trouble. Rittenhouse testified that he saw videos of violence in downtown Kenosha on Aug. 24, 2020, the day before the shootings, including a brick being thrown at a police officer's head and cars burning in a Car Source dealership lot. Rittenhouse said the Car Source owner “was happy we were there.”,Also read: US consumer prices soared 6.2% in past year, most since 1990,Rittenhouse’s decision to testify came despite several legal experts saying that an underwhelming prosecution case had made it less likely he would need to do so. Prosecutors used 5½ days of testimony to try to portray Rittenhouse as the aggressor on the night of the shootings. But the prosecution’s witnesses often bolstered the young man’s claim of self-defense, including his fear that his weapon would be taken away and used against him. The jurors were sent out of the room just before Rittenhouse began testifying while the judge explained his right to remain silent and the potential risks of testifying, Rittenhouse repeatedly answering that he understood. As jurors reentered the room, they filed by Rittenhouse on the stand. As Rittenhouse began answering questions, some jurors appeared to take extensive notes on their clipboards.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_IAxzIxai2.jpg","role":2},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"42.5847","longitude":"-87.8212","name":"Kenosha, WI, USA","city":"Kenosha"},"keywords":"Kyle Rittenhouse trial, Kenosha, Protest, B","originalPublishedOn":"2021-11-10T18:40:00+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"TlioedvX1P0W","slug":"ahmaud-arbery-killing-was-based-on-assumptions-prosecution-says","title":"Ahmaud Arbery killing was based on assumptions, prosecution says","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_vTSpq2aT4.jpg","coverCaption":"Prosecutor Linda Dunikoski during her opening statements in the Ahmaud Arbery trial.

Prosecutor Linda Dunikoski said that the short cellphone video that stirred national outrage over the slaying offered only a glimpse of the attack on Arbery, who gave his pursuers no reason to suspect him of any wrongdoing. They assumed that he must have committed some crime that day. He tried to run around their truck and get away from these strangers, total strangers, who had already told him that they would kill him. And then they killed him, Dunikoski was quoted to have said by the Associated Press. Arbery was killed on February 23, 2020, and it was largely ignored until the video leaked and deepened a national reckoning over racial injustice. According to a video recorded by William Roddie Bryan, Greg McMichael, and his adult son, Travis McMichael pursued Arbery in a pickup truck, with Bryan joining them, as he ran through their neighborhood just outside the port city of Brunswick in the state of Georgia. The video shows Travis McMichael shooting Arbery three times. The chase started on a Sunday afternoon when a neighbor who's not charged in the case called a nonemergency police number after seeing Arbery wandering inside a home under construction, where security cameras had recorded him before. Greg McMichael saw Arbery run past his home and ran inside to alert his son. They grabbed guns, jumped in their truck and gave chase, Dunikoski said. Bryan joined them after seeing Arbery run past the McMichaels' truck outside his home. The prosecutor told the jury that Greg McMichael later told police that at one point during the chase he shouted at Arbery, Stop or I'll blow your f—-ing head off!,When a police officer who responded to the shooting asked Greg McMichael if Arbery had broken into a house, he told the officer: That's just it. I don't know ... I don't know. He might have gone in somebody's house, according to Dunikoski. All three of these defendants did everything they did based on assumptions — not on facts, not on evidence, Dunikoski said. And they made decisions in their driveways based on those assumptions that took a young man's life. She said the grainy cellphone video shows Travis McMichael raise his shotgun beside the truck as Arbery approaches and tries to run around the opposite side. Travis McMichael is then seen stepping in front of the truck with the gun to confront the fleeing man, she said. As Dunikoski played the video of Arbery's death for the jury, his mother, Wanda Cooper-Jones, cried out in the courtroom and sobbed as her attorney tried to console her. Defense attorneys planned to give their own opening statements later on Friday. Superior Court Judge Timothy Walmsley swore in the disproportionately white jury on Friday before proceedings began. All three defendants are standing trial together, charged with murder and other felonies. Arbery had been dead for more than two months before the three men were charged and jailed last year. Greg McMichael, a retired investigator for the local district attorney, told police the men were trying to stop Arbery because they suspected he was a burglar.

In perspective, the cricketing board of the South African cricket team, Cricket South Africa last year had given them three options to show their support against racism: kneeling, raising a fist or standing in an attention position. Hoping that they would not see a repeat performance, CSA yet again saw defiance from some players who took the field in a warm-up game against Australia in the ICC men's T20 World Cup. This prompted them to change their stance on the three options and adopt a consistent and united stance against racism. Cut to October 26, 2021. The South African playing XI took a knee. This included Nortje and Klaasen. However, De Kock remained defiant and decided to give the match a miss due to his stand on taking a knee.

The Board’s view was that while diversity can and should find expression in many facets of daily lives, this did not apply when it came to taking a stand against racism. The Board will await a further report from team management before deciding on the next steps. All players are expected to follow this directive for the remaining games of the World Cup. “CSA thanks all other Proteas players for agreeing to unite and make such an important public stand against racism.”,A number of teams in the world of sports have been taking a united stand against racism by taking the knee before a match starts. de Kock’s decision has been met with scrutiny on social media with several people contemplating the possibility of him never donning the South African jersey again.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_IAxzIxai2.jpg","role":2},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"-26.2041","longitude":"28.0473","name":"Johannesburg, South Africa","city":"Johannesburg"},"keywords":"Cricket south africa, quinton de kock, south africa take the knee, south africa vs west indies, csa, cricket take the knee, icc south africa","originalPublishedOn":"2021-10-26T14:50:34.763767+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"iXdhSOXUCWds","slug":"t20-world-cup-quinton-de-kock-unavailable-for-south-africa-vs-west-indies-amid-blm-stand","title":"T20 World Cup: de Kock 'unavailable' for South Africa amid BLM stand","postType":1,"coverMedia":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_WOcGAk1WGRl.jpg","coverCaption":"Quinton de Kock in action for South Africa.

There was much speculation over what the playing XI will look like for India, with particular focus on whether an out-of-form Pandya, who is also not bowling at the moment since a back injury, will be selected. ,However, skipper Virat Kohli, among others, had backed the Mumbai Indians all-rounder prior to the match and kept faith in the 28-year-old with a chance to show his worth against Pakistan. We are pretty balanced with our squad and you need to be prepared for it. We need to stay as professional as possible. We need to stay focussed on the processes. ,The four players excluded from the lineup are Rahul Chahar, Ishan Kishan, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Shardul Thakur.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_IAxzIxai2.jpg","role":2},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"25.2048","longitude":"55.2708","name":"Dubai - United Arab Emirates","city":"Dubai"},"keywords":"India vs Pakistan, India take the knee, India vs Pakistan T20 World cup, T20 World Cup 2021","originalPublishedOn":"2021-10-24T14:30:28.164339+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"wmtpv2aOWwcG","slug":"florida-school-district-removes-black-lives-matter-story-from-5th-grade-books","title":"Florida School District removes 'Black Lives Matter' story from 5th grade books","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_RhIiXwSbA.jpg","coverCaption":"The Black Lives Matter has forced authorities to address racial disparities in the US.

Lee, who celebrated her 95th birthday Thursday, has devoted decades to making a difference in her Texas hometown of Fort Worth. She then saw her legacy in recent years stretch far beyond the city as she worked to get national recognition for Juneteenth, and stood beside President Joe Biden as he signed into law the bill making June 19 a federal holiday that commemorates when Union soldiers brought the news of freedom to enslaved Black people in Galveston, Texas, after the Civil War. “We don’t want people to think that Juneteenth is a stopping point, because it isn’t,” Lee, who worked for over two decades as a teacher and counselor in the Fort Worth school district, told The Associated Press. “It’s a beginning, and we’re going to address some of the disparities that we know exist.”,Her recent work in Fort Worth has included establishing a large community garden that produced 7,700 pounds of fruits and vegetables last year, delivering food to people who can’t leave their homes and working alongside others to transform a former Ku Klux Klan auditorium into a museum and center for the arts. As for Juneteenth, she’d like to see festivities span until the Fourth of July — and incorporate events to provide resources to help people with finances, health and other issues. Lee was born in 1926 in Marshall, nestled in the Piney Woods of East Texas near the border with Louisiana. Her family later moved to Fort Worth when her father took a job there working on the railroad, but her Juneteenth memories stretch back to her celebrations in Marshall as a young girl. “They’d have music and food. They’d have games and food. They’d have all kinds of entertainment and food. It was just like another Christmas,” Lee said. Her memories of Juneteenth also include a harrowing attack on her family on that day in 1939, when a white mob of hundreds descended on their Fort Worth home days after the Black family moved into a white neighborhood. She, her parents and two brothers all managed to escape, but her parents never talked about that day again. The mob smashed windows and furniture, according to newspaper reports from the time. “We would have been good neighbors, but they didn’t give us the chance to let them know how good we could have been,” Lee said. Lee’s childhood came in the shadow of widespread white-on-Black violence in the US In 1921, a white mob went on a deadly rampage in Tulsa, Oklahoma, burning over 1,000 homes and destroying a thriving business district known as Black Wall Street. Two years prior, hundreds of Black people were beaten, hanged, shot and burned to death by white mobs around the US in what’s known as the “Red Summer.”,Lee is among numerous people who have pushed for a national Juneteenth holiday over the years. Her granddaughter, Dione Sims, said it was in 2016 that Lee decided the effort to was taking too long. “She said, ‘It just needs some attention,’” Sims said. Reasoning that “somebody would notice a little old lady in tennis shoes,” Lee planned to walk from Fort Worth to Washington, D.C. That morphed into Lee doing walks in cities before traveling to the nation’s capital. She went on to organize more walks, meet with politicians and gather signatures. Her efforts drew recognition from celebrities, including Sean “Diddy” Combs, Lupita Nyong’o and Usher. “You have to have people who are dedicated to making things happen, and she was certainly dedicated to that and pulling things forward,” said Annette Gordon-Reed, a Harvard University professor and Pulitzer Prize-winning historian whose book “On Juneteenth” was published this year. Educating young people remains a focus for Lee, who earned a master’s degree in education from what is now the University of North Texas in Denton. She wants to make sure that students’ textbooks tell the full history of racial injustices in the U.S. so that “we can heal from it and not let it happen again.”,Recently, what schools teach about race and racism has become a political lightning rod, with some Republican-led states, including Texas, banning or limiting the teaching of certain concepts. “I’m adamant about schools actually having the truth told,” said Lee, who has written a children’s book titled “Juneteenth” that helps teach the history of slavery. In one of her most recent projects, Lee is a founding member of a coalition called Transform 1012 N. Main Street, which is working to turn that Fort Worth building — a former KKK auditorium — into the Fred Rouse Center and Museum for Arts and Community Healing, carrying the name of a Black man lynched in 1921. “Let’s make it where people can come and see this reconciliation and all kinds of things that need to be done,” Lee said. Adam W. McKinney and Daniel Banks, co-founders of the arts and service organization DNAWORKS, brought together local activists for the project. McKinney said Lee has a way of leading that invites others to join. “I learn so much from her in every one of our interactions,” McKinney said. Brenda Sanders-Wise, executive director of the Tarrant County Black Historical and Genealogical Society, a group that Lee was a charter member of, said Lee has a penchant for describing herself as “just a little old lady in tennis shoes getting in everybody’s business.” Sanders-Wise can think of a few other ways to describe her. “She’s an advocate, an activist, a leader, a strategist and a shrewd tactician, that’s who Opal Lee is to me,” Sanders-Wise said. “I call her an agent of change.”","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_IAxzIxai2.jpg","role":2},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"29.3838","longitude":"-94.9027","name":"Texas City, TX, USA","city":"Texas City"},"keywords":"Opal Lee, Opal Lee Juneteeth dream, Opal Lee Black lives matter","originalPublishedOn":"2021-10-08T15:45:00+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"JJ9WHvFHAu8B","slug":"george-floyds-statue-in-new-york-city-vandalised-again","title":"George Floyd's statue in New York City vandalised, again","postType":1,"coverMedia":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_WT03y5ri4zb.jpg","coverCaption":"In this Thursday, Sept. 30, 2021, file photo, a sculpture of George Floyd, one of three sculptures as part of the \"SEEINJUSTICE\" art exhibition.

As per reports, statues of Congressman John Lewis and Breonna Taylor, a Louisville, Kentucky, woman shot and killed by police last year, were not touched. The police are yet to release the video of the unidentified man. Sunday's act wasn't the first example of vandalism to the statue memorializing Floyd, whose killing at the hands of police in Minneapolis last year galvanized a racial justice movement across the country. The statue was unveiled on the Juneteenth holiday in a spot on Flatbush Avenue, in Brooklyn, and it was vandalized five days later with black paint and marked with an alleged logo of a white supremacist group. Members of the group that installed the statue cleaned it, and local residents and one of Floyd’s brothers gathered in July as it was prepared to move to Union Square, in the heart of Manhattan. The statue of Floyd is one of three by the artist Chris Carnabuci. Vandalism of any sort is not an action that is productive or meaningful, Carnabuci said in a written statement. Actions like this remind us that we have a long way to go, the artist added. According to ConfrontArt, a social justice arts organisation that produced the exhibition said that the incident had a silver lining. By the time ConfrontArt members arrived to restore the statue, other members had started scrubbing and working to honour the statue. [They] bought supplies out of their own pockets, the organisation's co-founder Andrew Cohen told CNN. This is inspiring teamwork and support from the community, he added. The New York Police hate-crime task force has opened a probe into the incident.

Kueng and Tou Thao are charged with aiding and abetting second-degree murder and aiding and abetting manslaughter. Legal experts say last week's ruling makes it highly unlikely that a charge of aiding and abetting third-degree murder would be added. Here's a look at why, and where the cases stand. Also Read: George Floyd's killer Derek Chauvin to be arraigned for violating rights of teen,WHAT HAPPENED?,The court last week threw out the third-degree murder conviction of Mohamed Noor, a former Minneapolis police officer who fatally shot Justine Ruszczyk Damond in 2017 after she called 911 to report a possible rape behind her home. Noor remains convicted of manslaughter and will be sentenced on that count. In its decision, the Supreme Court made it clear that a person can't be prosecuted for third-degree murder – also known as depraved-mind murder – if his or her actions were directed at a particular person. The ruling settles a longstanding debate over whether a third-degree murder charge can be applied if a fatal act is directed at someone specific. The bottom line: It can't. ,FIRST, DOES THIS AFFECT DEREK CHAUVIN?,Not really. Though the former Minneapolis officer was convicted of third-degree murder in Floyd's May 25, 2020, death, he was also convicted of the more serious count of unintentional second-degree murder. Under state law, Chauvin was sentenced on that conviction, so his 22½-year sentence on that count stands. ,Experts say Chauvin's third-degree murder conviction will likely be tossed out, either on appeal or by the trial judge. But it won't have any real impact on his situation, unless his second-degree murder conviction is somehow overturned on appeal. Experts like Minneapolis defense attorney Ryan Pacyga say that just won't happen. Chauvin also was convicted of manslaughter. Also Read: Former police officers accused of violating Floyd's rights face arraignment,WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER EX-OFFICERS?,Prosecutors had wanted to add charges of aiding and abetting third-degree murder, but Mike Brandt, another Minneapolis defense attorney who has been watching the case, said there's zero chance that will happen. You can't have depraved-mind murder if you are directing your actions toward one particular person, he said. ,Pacyga agreed, saying that in light of the Noor ruling, I don't see how the prosecution could ever justify trying to charge any of Chauvin's co-defendants with aiding and abetting a third-degree murder. He said it's clear Chauvin's act was targeted at one person. ,Floyd repeatedly said he couldn't breathe as Chauvin pinned him to the ground. Kueng and Lane helped restrain Floyd; Kueng knelt on Floyd's back, and Lane held Floyd's legs, according to evidence in state court. Thao held back bystanders and kept them from intervening. The attorney general's office, which is prosecuting the case, said it is studying the Supreme Court decision. WAS THIS CHARGE EVEN POSSIBLE? ,This was a legal question even before the Noor ruling. Defense attorney Deborah Ellis argued before the Court of Appeals that it was legally impossible for Lane, Kueng and Thao to be charged with aiding and abetting third-degree murder. ,She said to aid and abet, the accomplice, principle actor and accessories must all be of the same mindset. She said to aid and abet third-degree murder, you would have to intentionally aid ... an irrational frame of mind of somebody else. Appeals Court Judge Renee Worke called her argument novel. ,Brandt said a charge of aiding and abetting third-degree murder is theoretically possible, but not practical. He said the person charged with aiding and abetting would have to know that someone else was going to commit an act that was inherently dangerous to others without regard to life – something Brandt called a pretty high road. Also Read: Elijah McClain death: Probe finds racial bias in Aurora police department,WHAT ABOUT FUTURE CASES INVOLVING POLICE?,In arguing that Noor's murder conviction should stand, prosecutors told the Supreme Court that nearly all killings by officers are directed at a specific person. They argued that if the court ruled as it ultimately did, then no officer would ever be prosecuted under Minnesota's depraved-mind murder statute. The justices said prosecutors were wrong. They said anyone, including an officer, could still be convicted of depraved-mind murder if they kill someone while showing indifference to human life in general. The court also said that depending on the case, an officer could face a different murder charge. WHAT'S NEXT?,Chauvin is in custody on his murder conviction and has pleaded not guilty to federal charges of violating Floyd's civil rights. He also pleaded not guilty to violating the civil rights of a teenager in 2017 in a separate case involving a neck restraint similar to the one he used on Floyd. Lane, Kueng and Thao are scheduled for trial in March on the aiding and abetting counts. They also pleaded not guilty to federal charges of violating Floyd's rights. ,As for Noor, his case goes back to the district court, where he will be sentenced on the manslaughter count. With time already served, he could be eligible for supervised release around the end of this year.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_IAxzIxai2.jpg","role":2},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"44.9778","longitude":"-93.265","name":"Minneapolis, MN, USA","city":"Minneapolis"},"keywords":"George Floyd, Justice for George Floyd, Derek Chauvin","originalPublishedOn":"2021-09-20T23:55:00+00:00"}},{"node":{"id":"Ff8wHwrC06jJ","slug":"george-floyds-killer-derek-chauvin-to-be-arraigned-for-violating-rights-of-teen","title":"George Floyd's killer Derek Chauvin to be arraigned for violating rights of teen","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_EJWzkdjkbC.jpg","coverCaption":"Derek Chauvin (right) addresses a Minneapolis court in April (Photo Credit: AP)","reactionStats":"{\"like_count\":0,\"heartbreak_count\":0,\"laugh_count\":0,\"sad_count\":0,\"angry_count\":0}","updatedOn":"2021-09-16T11:21:00.461349+00:00","highlightSummary":"\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eDerek Chauvin, former Minneapolis police officer, was convicted of the murder of George Floyd\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eChauvin was sentenced to 22 and 1/2 years in prison\u003c/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eNow, Derek Chauvin will be arraigned for violating the civil rights of a teenager\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e","highlightSummaryFlag":1,"breakingSponsored":0,"coverMediaType":1,"reactionsCount":0,"commentsCount":0,"lastComment":null,"isUpdated":false,"lastCommentUser":null,"trustScore":1,"fakeTrust":2,"content":"{\\\"time\\\":1631791070123,\\\"strCount\\\":4602,\\\"blocks\\\":[{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"A former Minneapolis police officer convicted of murder in the \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/former-police-officers-accused-of-violating-floyds-rights-face-arraignment?utm_source=copy-share\u0026amp;utm_medium=web\u0026amp;utm_campaign=none\\\\\\\"\u003edeath of George Floyd\u003c/a\u003e is scheduled to be arraigned Thursday for allegedly violating the civil rights of a teenager in a separate case that involved a restraint similar to the one used on Floyd.\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Also Read | \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/who-was-george-floyd?utm_source=copy-share\u0026amp;utm_medium=web\u0026amp;utm_campaign=none\\\\\\\"\u003eWho was George Floyd?\u003c/a\u003e\\\"}},{\\\"type\\\":\\\"paragraph\\\",\\\"data\\\":{\\\"text\\\":\\\"Derek Chauvin \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/will-us-justice-system-be-tougher-on-police-after-george-floyd-case?utm_source=copy-share\u0026amp;utm_medium=web\u0026amp;utm_campaign=none\\\\\\\"\u003ewas convicted earlier this year\u003c/a\u003e on state charges of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in \u003ca href=\\\\\\\"https://opoyi.com/who-was-george-floyd?utm_source=copy-share\u0026amp;utm_medium=web\u0026amp;utm_campaign=none\\\\\\\"\u003eFloyd's 2020 death\u003c/a\u003e.
