Wisconsin Declares State Of Emergency

Update: 2020-08-26 07:10 GMT
The oppression of blacks in the United States continues. A black man has been shot by National Guards in Kenosha, Wisconsin. This incident led to large-scale riots and clashes in the city.

The video posted online appears to show Jacob Blake being shot in the back as he tries to get into a car in Kenosha and now going viral on social media.

Police used tear gas at hundreds of protesters who defied a curfew, threw bottles and shot fireworks at law enforcement guarding the courthouse.

Authorities in the city declared an emergency overnight curfew after unrest broke out following the shooting. This is the first time blacks have been shot and repressed since police assassinated George Floyd in the past.
