Racial tension


8月美國Ferguson鎭上的一則白人警察槍殺死了一位黑人青年事件,讓一些原本隱忍種族主義及偏見壓力已久的人,因這起事故而爆發出來,屢屢上街遊行抗議,成為國際新聞。
前個月,有滋事份子就乘警方忙於駐守抗議行動,就打破商店的玻璃窗拿走貨物。
這間手機電訊店在我們家附近,還有其他商店,也是只離不到一公哩的Ferguson地區,視前車之鑑,用木板蓋着玻璃窗,以防遭殃。
有人說,如果警察是黑人,或被槍殺死的是白人,他們是同種族,那就不會出現這樣的種族關係緊張。。

啊。。都已經廿一世紀了,人的思維還是停留在膚色?
不管是什麽色,每個種族都有‘好’人及‘壞’人!
我們必須要醒覺的是,做好自己。

In Ferguson, a little town, there is a recent case of a white policeman fatally shooting a young black man in August. And then it became international news.
Looters took advantage of the situation, breaking into some stores, since the police were busy with the protests.
This mobile store and some other stores in and around Ferguson are boarding up as they are afraid of possibly more rioting.
Some said if the case was a black police officer, or a white youth, the same race, it wouldn't be an issue..

Ah.. it is 21st century.  Do people still remain focused on skin color?
No matter what color, every race has their 'good' and 'bad' people!
I think we should be aware of our own self, being conscientiously aware.

美國看似很開放,黑人做了總統。還是有不少人活在思想保守、歧視、偏見。。
