Here's my question..thinking within the context of dehumanization of course. Do you think that policing in the U.S as it relates to members of minority communities...contributes to dehumanization in our society today?
2 reasons I ask...just as anything else the more something is shown in the media the more "normal" it seems to become regardless of morality.
We constantly see police kill unarmed black and brown people and we see the same song and dance..news coverage...officer gets off people are mad...Repeat.
In my opinion this works as a former of propaganda as an agent to reinforce the thought that black and brown lives are not as valuable as others...
Taking into account that the US is known as a global leader that other countries look to as an example....do you feel that this issue...if continued will lead to normaliziation of dehumanization in other regions?
Sorry if my question isn't clear....it sounded wayyy better in my head
