Protests, Being Black in America, Racism & Inequality -Shaka: Extra Time

In the midst of protests spreading in the United States and at different parts of the world Shaka remembers and recites Martin Luther King’s saying “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.” “This still remains a dream,” adds Shaka and discusses with Paul Ndiho what it means to be black in the U.S. The protests were sparked by the death of African-American George Floyd, after a white police officer kneeled on his neck for more than eight minutes while he was pleading that he could not breathe.
