As a European with some experience in the US, I’m so saddened by the suffering Black Americans have to go through on a daily basis And the silence of economists about these too numerous layers of injustice is deafening Where are you economists? @itsafronomics/1266714711913107456

And I’m not being naive about racial injustices in Europe What’s going on in the French banlieues between the police and non-white people is well documented. It’s no different to what happen in the US between the police and Black Americans. There’s just less guns involved.

And while I’m at it, police officers attacking journalists covering protests is sadly way too common in France It’s by no mean the first time I’m seeing such images What kind of democracy let its police kill people from ethnic minorities and attack journalists and do nothing?
