The murder of a black man shook the superpower, curfew imposed in many American cities
The United States got into a new predicament during the Corona catastrophe. The killing of a black citizen by the police shook the whole country. Curfews have been imposed in several prominent cities following violent riots, protests and sieges.
According to the French news agency AFP, the curfew was imposed at a time when violent protests continued in the United States despite President Trump's warning. Major cities such as Los Angeles, Atlanta and Philadelphia are currently under curfew. Authorities are urging citizens not to leave their homes.
The protests erupted when a black man named George Floyd was strangled by a police officer in Minneapolis for nine minutes before he died. A video of those painful moments went viral on social media. There was a wave of grief and anger among the people after which a series of nationwide protests began.
Police officer Derek Schwein has not only been fired but has also been charged. On the other hand, according to American TV CNBC, Kelly Schwinn, the wife of police officer Derek Schwinn, decided to end her 10-year marriage and filed for divorce.
