This first article is about a man named George Floyd who was violently murdered at the hands of police brutality. He was 'suspected' of using a counterfeit $20 bill. Other officers watched  him be murdered while another pressed his knees on George's neck for 8 minutes. Throughout this time, he was pleading and begging for his life and his mama. It took a filming of his death, nationwide outrage and 2 entire months for all of George Floyd's killers to be arrested. “This is a great thing happening for our country,”’ President Trump said.

How George Floyd Was Killed in Police Custody (Published 2020)

The Times has reconstructed the death of George Floyd on May 25. Security footage, witness videos and official documents show how a series of actions by officers turned fatal.

This second article is about a white 17 year old who initiated a shooting and killed 2 people. He is charged with many things. However, although there are videos of him shooting people, there have been over a million dollars in fundraising to help him. "About 15 minutes before the first shooting, police officers drive past Mr. Rittenhouse, and the other armed civilians who claim to be protecting the dealership, and offer water out of appreciation. Mr. Rittenhouse walks up to a police vehicle carrying his rifle and talks with the officers"(NY times). While Kyle may be in jail,many predict he will be let go. Why? Because he is white. Although prejudice has a negative connotation, the word can also be used to one's advantage. Kyle is not dead because of his privilege. However, George Floyd was accused of something with no evidence of and he is dead. The same theme is shown through TKAM 80 years prior to Tom Robinson. It is not okay to treat anybody differently because of the color of their skin.

A teenager who walked among protesters in Kenosha, Wis., carrying a military-style semi-automatic rifle was arrested and faces a charge of first-degree intentional homicide in connection with shootings that left two people dead on Tuesday night.

Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old Illinois resident, appeared on multiple videos taken throughout the night by protesters and bystanders who chronicled the events as peaceful protests gave way to chaos, with demonstrators, armed civilians and others facing off against one another and the police in the darkened streets.

The New York Times's Visual Investigations unit analyzed hours of footage to track Mr. Rittenhouse 's movements in the moments leading up to, and during, the shootings.

Mr. Rittenhouse was arrested early Wednesday in his hometown, Antioch, Ill., which is about 30 minutes southwest of the protests in Kenosha, just over the state line.

Multiple posts on his social media accounts proclaim support for pro-police causes like the Blue Lives Matter movement and Humanize the Badge, a nonprofit that he ran a Facebook fund-raiser for on his 16th birthday.

His posts also suggest a strong affinity for guns, with videos showing Mr. Rittenhouse taking backyard target practice, posing with guns and assembling a weapon.

But many details about both his background and his motivations for walking around the Kenosha protests carrying a military-style semi-automatic rifle are still emerging.

About two hours before the first shooting, the producer of a video livestream interviews Mr. Rittenhouse at a Kenosha vehicle dealership.

Mr. Rittenhouse is there at the same time as several other armed men. Some of them are positioned on the building's roof overlooking the parking lot where vehicles were burned the day before.

In a brief exchange on the livestream, he identifies himself as "Kyle."

In another interview, Mr. Rittenhouse speaks with Richie McGinniss, a video editor at Daily Caller, a conservative news and opinion site.

Mr. Rittenhouse says that he's there to protect the business. He calls it his job, although there is no indication that he was asked to guard the site.

Later, he claims to another videographer that he was pepper sprayed by someone in a nearby crowd while protecting property.

In most of the footage The Times has reviewed from before the shootings, Mr. Rittenhouse is around this area. He also offers medical assistance to protesters.

About 15 minutes before the first shooting, police officers drive past Mr. Rittenhouse, and the other armed civilians who claim to be protecting the dealership,and offer water out of appreciation.

Mr. Rittenhouse walks up to a police vehicle carrying his rifle and talks with the officers.

He eventually leaves the dealership and is barred by the police from returning. Six minutes later footage shows Mr. Rittenhouse being chased by an unknown group of people into the parking lot of another dealership several blocks away.

While Mr. Rittenhouse is being pursued by the group, an unknown gunman fires into the air, though it's unclear why. The weapon's muzzle flash appears in footage filmed at the scene.

Mr. Rittenhouse turns toward the sound of gunfire as another pursuer lunges toward him from the same direction. Mr. Rittenhouse then fires four times, and appears to shoot the man in the head.

Mr. Rittenhouse seems to make a phone call and then flees the scene. Several people chase him, some shouting, "That's the shooter!"

As Mr. Rittenhouse is running, he trips and falls to the ground. He fires four shots as three people rush toward him. One person appears to be hit in the chest and falls to the ground. Another, who is carrying a handgun, is hit in the arm and runs away.

Mr. Rittenhouse's gunfire is mixed in with the sound of at least 16 other gunshots that ring out during this time.

As this happens, police vehicles just one block away remain stationary during the gunfire.

Mr. Rittenhouse walks with his hands up toward the police vehicles. Bystanders call out to the officers that he had just shot people.

The police drive by him without stopping, on their way to assist the victims.

After the shootings, local officials announced a 7 p.m. curfew would continue until Sunday. And Wisconsin's governor, Tony Evers, said he was sending hundreds more members of the state's National Guard to Kenosha.

"'What you want Luna?' she asked... 'I wants to know why you bringing white chillun to a n****r church'" (Lee 125). Calpurnia had to defend Scout and Jem when she took them to her (predominantly black) church. This shows that black people can also be prejudiced towards white people. Because although Scout and Jem come from a good family, black people mostly had a negative connotation with White people and the way they were treated by them.

# data[].attributes.body
Scout asked Jem a question one day after school,"Well coming out of the courthouse that night Miss Gates was...I heard her say it's time someone taught 'em a lesson, they were getting way above themselves, an' next thing they think they can do is marry us.Jem how can you hate Hitler so bad an' then turn around and be ugly about folks right at home?" (Lee 283). This is Scout is confused on how Miss Gates can be so hypocritical. It's not okay for Jewish people to be mistreated in Miss Gates' eyes, but she saw no problem with how Black people were treated in Maycomb. This is very relevant because it's showing how people are treated differently based on the color of their skin.

Racial Prejudice has been rooted into our society since the beginning of time and flourishes through racial inequality when someone is treated differently due to the color of their skin.

"'She was white and she tempted a Negro. She did something that in our society is unspeakable: she kissed a black man.Not an old Uncle, but a strong young negro'" (Lee 231-232).
Although Atticus was defending Tom Robinson, what he said was very condescending towards Tom. This adds to our theme of the fact that racial prejudice has been embedded into our brain for so long.
