The family of George Floyd made a dramatic appeal to the United Nations today for the world to hold the United States accountable for police brutality and systemic racism
.
The special session was held after 54 African countries called for a discussion on the “current racially inspired human rights violations, systematic racism, police brutality against people of African descent and violence against peaceful protests” in the United States. The two-day debate will continue tomorrow at 9 a.m. ET, after which the Council’s 47 members will vote on whether to establish an independent inquiry into U.S. racism and police brutality.
At times the discussion turned into a platform for America’s foes, including Iran, which described George Floyd’s killing as a “public execution” at odds with Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision for a peaceful American society, and Cuba, which called severe racism “not the exception” but “part and parcel” of American life.
