"Black Lives Matter!"
2020³â 6¿ù 19ÀÏ
Peace Treaty Now
Korean American Statement of Unity
Denouncing the Police Murder of George Floyd and Systemic Racism in the United States
We stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter protests around the world to denounce the police murder of George Floyd and systemic racism in the United States.
Police violence was the direct cause of George Floyd¡¯s death in Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 25th and is rooted in a system of white supremacy that has consistently oppressed and silenced Blacks and other people of color.
The human rights situation in the United States--which owes its progress to the Black-led civil rights and liberation movements of the 1960s--has taken a nosedive since the inauguration of Donald Trump. His racist remarks have contaminated US society, much like the Coronavirus, and have instigated racist violence. Trump has revealed the true face of American society, and the current situation is bringing to light America¡¯s long-concealed and deeply-rooted flaws—systemic racism, class inequality and militarism.
"I Can't Breathe..."
This is no longer just the desperate plea of George Floyd. It has become the battle cry of people around the world who have been strangled to the point of suffocation. Rampant racism, persistent inequality, the paralysis of the US healthcare system in the COVID-19 pandemic, and the government¡¯s incompetence in response to the healthcare crisis have fueled the people with deep frustration and outrage. As long as there is no justice, there can be no true peace. That is why we join the protests to say:
"No Justice, No Peace"
As racial minority immigrants, Korean Americans, too, are not free from systemic racism. Only by joining in solidarity with other communities to fight against injustice can we create a society where our children can breathe freely. We must stand with the Black Lives Matter protests and join in the fight against systemic racism and inequality.
More than 1000 people die each year at the hands of the police in the US, and the world is mired in endless wars due to the military might of this country, which proclaims itself the ¡°world¡¯s police.¡± That is why protesters are calling for de-funding the police and the military. Cutting the police and military budgets to reallocate our tax dollars for food, healthcare, housing, education, solving climate change and widespread poverty, and preventing bigotry and discrimination is an important act of restoring justice.
We rise in solidarity with all who want an end to systemic racism and police violence as well as poverty and inequality.
Black Lives Matter!
