Ngaphakathi Komqondo Wobukhulu Bomhlophe

Selokhu kwazalwa isizwe sakithi, besihlala ngaphansi kohlelo lwezobulungiswa olumbili - olwabelungu nolunye olwebala. NgeSonto, ngo-Agasti 23, eKenosha, eWisconsin, siphinde salibona leli qiniso lisebenza lapho uJacob Blake, wase-African American, edutshulwa ekhonjwe emhlane kasikhombisa ngephoyisa laseCaucasus ngenkathi izingane zakhe ezintathu zibuka ngokwesaba. Ngokuyisimangaliso, uBlake wasinda, yize ekhubazekile kusukela okhalweni kwehle.

Lo mcimbi ucela lo mbuzo: Ukube uBlake wayengumlungu, ngabe lokhu bekuzokwenzeka?

Abantu bebevele bathukuthele futhi babhikishela ukubulawa kwamaphoyisa uBreonna Taylor noGeorge Floyd abangena emigwaqweni ngakusasa eKenosha nase-U.S. Bekhalaza ngokudutshulwa kukaBlake. Ngasikhathi sinye, iqembu lamasosha elaziwa ngokuthi yiKenosha Guard lithumele kuFacebook ngomcimbi wokulwa nombhikisho wosuku olulandelayo owawuphakamisa ukuthi ababekhona balethe izikhali.

NgoLwesibili, Agasti 25, oneminyaka engu-17 wase-Antiyokiya, e-Illinois, waphendula ucingo; Ehlomile futhi elungele, weqa imigqa kahulumeni waya eKenosha, lapho aqhubeka khona wadubula wabulala umbhikishi owayenokuthula, uJoseph Rosenbaum, ngesikhathi ezama ukuvimba insizwa. Ngesikhathi ebaleka endaweni yesehlakalo, umdubuli wakhubeka wawa. Ngesikhathi omunye umbhikishi onokuthula, u-Antony Huber, ezama ukumvimba izikhali, lo mdubuli wamdubula wambulala. Ngemuva kwalokho umbulali walimaza kanzima uGaige Grosskreutz.

Ukusabalala kobukhulu babamhlophe

Eminyakeni embalwa edlule, ubuphekula basekhaya buye baba usongo olukhulu kakhulu kunanoma yiluphi olunye uhlobo lobuphekula. Amaqembu amakhulu abamhlophe akhula phakathi neminyaka eyisishiyagalombili yobongameli buka-Obama, kanti uDonald Trump wabasayinisa ngesikhathi somkhankaso wakhe.

Engxoxweni ebisanda kwenziwa, owayeyisikhulu soMnyango Wezokuphepha Kwasekhaya (i-DHS) u-Elizabeth Neumann uthe umnyango ububheke kakhulu e-Isis kuze kube u-Agasti 11 no-12, 2017, lapho umhlangano omkhulu wabamhlophe kanye nomhlangano weNeo-Nazi, i-Unite the Right, wenzeka eCharlottesville, eVirginia. . Ushintsho lwenzekile phakathi kwamaqembu abaphathi bamhlophe abamhlophe: Abasasizwanga isidingo sokucasha noma ukuzifihla.

Ezizwa enesibindi, ngo-Okthoba 2018, iphekula elimhlophe eliphakeme labulala abayi-11 esinagogeni ePittsburgh; kwathi ngo-Agasti 2019, amaphekula avulela ngenhlamvu eWalmart e-El Paso, abulala noma alimaza abantu abangu-46.

Kwathi ngo-Mashi 2019, inhlangano yabamhlophe yase-U.S. Yabamhlophe yaya emhlabeni wonke, lapho, ngosuku olufanayo, ukuhlaselwa kwamaphekula kwenzeka emaSulumeni amabili ahlukene, kwathi abantu abangama-51 babulawa. Omunye wamaphekula waseNew Zealand wabhala umqulu wezimemezelo lapho amemezela khona ukweseka umongameli wase-U.S. UDonald Trump "njengophawu lobunikazi obusha obenziwe kabusha nenhloso efanayo."

Ukuqiniswa nguMongameli nePhini Likamongameli

UNuemann ukholelwa ukuthi iMelika isiphenduke “umthengisi wangaphandle wenhlangano (yabamhlophe) ... Emkhakheni womhlaba, beza e-U.S. Futhi bacela ukuthi kwenziwe okuthile. Kepha umongameli ngeke akubize. Usebenzisa (igama) 'ubuphekula basekhaya' ku-Antifa kepha hhayi inhlangano yabamhlophe yokuphakama. Ukuhlangana okunodlame okuyingozi okwenzeka emlandweni wenhlangano yabamhlophe. ”

UNeumann uqhubeka athi, “Amaqembu abamhlophe aphakanyiswa ukwenqaba (kukamongameli kanye nephini likamongameli) ukuwalahla. Umphetho owedlulele ngakwesokudla ukholelwa ukuthi izwe kufanele libe mhlophe futhi lilawulwe ngamadoda amhlophe ... Njengoba ukuqashwa kwenzeka, kunodlame oluningi; esikubone eminyakeni emithathu edlule. ”

Bekusobala ukuthi iPhini likaMongameli uPence wakushaya indiva ukuzibandakanya kwenhlangano yabamhlophe ezenzweni zobudlova lapho, ngesikhathi enkulumweni yakamuva, ekhuluma ngokubulawa kwesikhulu Sokuphepha Kwasekhaya kodwa wehluleka ukusho ukuthi umbulali wayeyilungu leqembu elineqophelo eliphezulu.Lokhu kushiye ezinye izethameli zakholwa ukuthi umbulali ubelilungu le-Antifa. (Qaphela: I-Antifa imele i-anti-fascist; ngakho-ke ngokunengqondo, labo abaphikisayo empeleni bangama-pro-fascism.)

Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi inqubo ye-radicalization eku-inthanethi esetshenziswa ngamaqembu abaphezulu abamhlophe angakwesokudla e-U.S ifana kakhulu nenqubo esetshenziselwa ukunyakaza okukhulu kwe-jihadist.

I-roller coaster engokomzwelo

Ukubulawa kwabantu abamnyama baseMelika ngamaphoyisa, kanye nokubulawa kwababhikishi abaMhlophe ngabaphathi abamhlophe, kuholele ekutheni abaningi bazizwe bedabuke kakhulu, bephelelwe yithemba, besaba, bekhungathekile futhi bethukuthele ngenxa yokungabi bikho kwesinyathelo sokulungisa obekufanele sithathwe yilabo sibuse. ICongress ibukeka inenhloso yokugcina iMelika yangekhulu lama-21 iboshelwe ekuchitshiyelweni koMthethosisekelo osekuphelelwe yisikhathi. Yize kwakusebenza ngekhulu le-18 nele-19 lapho ubungozi bezilwane zasendle, ukuhlaselwa amazwe angaphandle, nokulwela inkululeko yangempela ebushushwini bangaphandle kwakuyizinsongo zangempela, akusadingeki ukuthi izakhamizi zithwale izikhali zilwe namabutho amabi: Amasosha ethu akhokhelwayo abesilisa nabesifazane bensizakalo bamukela leso sibopho kithi ngamunye.

Abaningi bethu babona umkhawulo wesikhathi sokushonelwa esikhathini samanje: Silinyazwe kakhulu yimicimbi engemihle edlule ukuthi izimpilo zethu azinanjongo noma ziyize futhi ikusasa libukeka lingenathemba. Ngokujabulisayo, iningi lethu elizizwa ngale ndlela belingacabangi ukuzibulala thina, ikakhulu abanye. Siyazi ngaphakathi enhliziyweni yethu ukuthi kusasa ngolunye usuku, ukuthi impilo izoqhubeka, futhi ekugcineni ingahle ibe ngcono. Kepha labo abangakwesokudla kakhulu babhajwe enkingeni yamanje - kanye nokwesaba.

Ngaphakathi kwengqondo yephekula lasekhaya

Into eyodwa amaphekula amakhulu amhlophe okungenzeka afana ngayo, ngaphandle kokuba mhlophe, ukuthi ngokwesaba okukhulu ukulahleka - ukulahleka kwendlela impilo ebekade iyiyo, indlela abafuna kube ngayo futhi. Babona ikusasa labo lisongelwa ngabantu bebala nalabo ababasekayo. Besaba ukulahleka kokubaluleka kwabo okubonakalayo emphakathini. Bahlala kuwo wonke amadolobha ezweni lonke. Abanye bangabantu abanesizungu noma bakhishwe inyumbazane ngontanga baze baxhumeke ku-inthanethi nalabo abanomqondo ofanayo.

Mhlawumbe bake baxhashazwa futhi manje sebephenduke iziqhwaga noma mhlawumbe bebelokhu beyiziqhwaga. Mhlawumbe banomuzwa wokuthi abazwanga noma bathathwe ngokungathi sína, noma abanakiwe. Mhlawumbe bezwa ifa labo elimhlophe libenza babenelungelo lokuzenzakalela.

Kepha noma ngabe siyini isizathu, baba ngamazinga ahlukahlukene, imiphakathi, ngaphandle kwemikhawulo yecala, uzwela, nozwela, futhi bazizwe belungile mathupha ezenzweni zabo ezimbi. Futhi ngenxa yesimo sezinto esikhona kweminye iminyango yamaphoyisa, abanakho ukwesaba okuncane njengoba befuna isimo esingesihle neze sesikhashana se-hedonism yamanje "yokulwa" kuhlonyiwe nababhikishi beBlack Lives Matter.

Ushintsho kungenzeka

Kungase kubonakale kungenakwenzeka ukuthi abantu abanezinkolelo ezijule kangaka bangashintsha. Kepha kungenzeka. Bobabili uDaryl Davis noDerek Black babelane ngezindaba zabo zokuthi lokhu kungenzeka kanjani.

KuDavis, omnyama, kungenxa yezingxoxo ezinomthelela nabaphathi abamhlophe. Enkulumweni abe nayo ku-Forbes.com, wabelane ngokuthi, “Abantu bangashintsha. Ngibone abantu beguquka. Abanye balaba bantu abangizonda ngasikhathi sinye manje bangabangane bami abahle kakhulu. Ngikubonile lokho kwenzeka. ”

KuBlack, owayeyilungu lobuzwe obumhlophe futhi ubaba wakhe kwakunguGrand Wizard weKu Klux Klan, kwaqala ukukhishwa ekolishi njengomphathi omkhulu wabamhlophe, bese eya emidlweni yamasonto onke yeShabbat nabangane abasha abangamaJuda. Enkulumweni yePBS.org, wabelane ngakho ngesikhathi sesidlo sakusihlwa esinjalo, "ebona ukuthi akuyona into engaqondakali: Lokhu kungukuhlaselwa kobuntu babo."

Esingakwenza

Thina abafuna ukusebenzela ukubumbana okuphelele, okubandakanya wonke umuntu kudingeka sime ndawonye ukusiza ukudala izinguquko zomthetho ezidingekayo. Lokhu kuqala ngokuvota. Manje sekusobala ukuthi iningi lalabo esibaqashele ukuzosimela belisihluleka ngokweqile. Kumele bavotelwe baphume esikhundleni. Sidinga ukulawula izibhamu okuqinile - ukuvinjelwa kuzo zonke izikhali zokuhlasela ezempi ngomlilo osheshayo, amakamelo ezinhlamvu eziningi - futhi lokho kungukuqala. Ukuhlolwa kwezizinda zobugebengu nezempilo yengqondo kubalulekile ngaphambi kokuthi noma ngubani athole ilayisense yesibhamu.
