dc.description.abstract | This Mémoire examines the issue of racism in the United States. Black lives matter is a social movement that emerged in the United States as a response to the unjust killings of Black people by police officers. The movement gained the attention of the media after the death of George Floyd, a 46 years old Black citizen, and the spread of a video of him saying "I can't breathe". Floyd's dying words have become a rallying cry at demonstrations in the United States and around the world holding the slogan Black Lives Matter. Indeed, History is repeating itself. Today's protests are similar to the marches led by the civil rights movement during the 1950s and 1960s. This memoire compares between both movements in terms of structure, tactics, and leadership roles. It also examines the myth of post-racial America after electing Barak Obama as a president from an African American origin. | ar |
