On the 25th of last month, American African-American man George Freud was killed by violent law enforcement by the American police. Now, a month has passed, and the wave of "protest against the violent law enforcement by the American police and against racial discrimination in the United States" triggered by this incident continues throughout the United States and even the world.

An American expert pointed out in an interview with a CCTV reporter that this protest against police violent law enforcement and racial discrimination has gone beyond mere protests. The relationship between the US police and civilians, especially ethnic minorities, will be reconstructed.
Historically, many of the actions of the US law enforcement agencies before the abolition of slaves were to exercise the laws that were made for the black slaves at that time and used to control their actions. One of the earliest law enforcement officers in the United States was a team that specifically arrested and returned black slaves who had fled the plantation.
Dr. Danzler, Georgia State University, USA: Seizing the slaves who left the plantation will make us think about the nature of the police. When we consider that the police are in the United States and over-enforce the African or brown people, we will think that the same relationship exists. Recently, when a child saw a police car driving across the street, it was hidden behind a car, because he didn't want to be seen, it explained everything. For different people, the interaction with the police may not be a happy and pleasant thing. As we have seen, everything can be very negative, and the situation will soon escalate.
Dantzler believes that this US protest against police violent law enforcement has gone beyond mere protests more than a month later, but reconstructed the relationship between the police and civilians, especially the police and ethnic minorities.
Dr. Dantzler, Georgia State University, USA: Many cities in the United States have begun to rethink policies that provide budgets to police and law enforcement agencies, and rethink the use of some of the funds for public services. There are many opinions about the relationship between the police and their law enforcement communities, so one of the reasons people fight is to make the community pay attention to African-American and brown ethnic groups. Rethink and build the relationship between these groups and the police, and make politicians pay the price.
Dantzler pointed out that this protest is different from the previous protest against police law enforcement against African-Americans. Apart from the larger scale and longer duration, the breadth of participants is also unprecedented. This shows that the social consensus of ethnic minorities is taking shape.
Dr. Dantzler, Georgia State University, United States: People of different races are united together and fighting for social change. Now we see that it is not just the African ethnic groups who are shouting, but that different races, men, women and children are all shouting together.
