Following up on our recent/ongoing heated community debate on the #BlackLivesMatter protest in the aftermath of police murdering of George Floyd (and more since then), we decided to look briefly into the history of racism in the United States, Civil Rights Movement, the emergence of mass incarceration, and most importantly the changing (not evolving) nature of racism in the post-civil right US.

Ofcourse, we couldn't have ignored some of the questions that emerged from the recent/ongoing discussions such as appropriateness of the modes of protest (looting/ violence), Obama & "post-racist" US society, and the never-ending, possibly dead-end question of who owns and can certify/distribute the label “Tibetan"
