A conversation. .. is that the best you have?
You as a young white male seem very certain of the struggles that have affected the BAME communities in recent years.
Apart from the fact obviously that this is not a situation in its infancy, the macpherson report highlighted the need for institutional reform within the police do recent events suggest that has happened?
What do you suggest will give equality 'mass appeal'? Maybe having the tabloids not spew out divisive articles demonising groups year in year out. Not having characters like farage and hopkins thrust into the spotlight to reinforce that narrative?
To answer to your question I can think of many examples of societal shifts before the shouting stopped, the plight of refugees being one, after all wars it is the people of this country that battled to aid those in need when our govt refused.
There will be other examples I could find if you like?
It's not just 2020 that spurned this approach, it's helped though the pandemic has everyone in the mindset that you have to in some way force decisions because the powers that be are so slow to act and react.
I see it as a good thing, we need to see real change and that change working, not mealy mouthed MPs or empty promises.
