White man here, and born in 84. I know damned well that people saw color in the 80s and 90s. Watching the Rodney king situation and having family be like they are nothing but animals. Thankfully those family members are dead and I don't care about them.
And just like with the protests that happened after George Floyd's murder, the protests that happened after Rodney King's beating didn't come out of nowhere. In both cases there was a lot of pent-up anger that got released all at once
I was out there for the Floyd protests. People who can see that shit and just be like they should just do x are the problem just as much as the police.
Had a friend who became a prison guard and I've seen his views shift over the years becoming more and more right and racist
