Fundamentally, white folk in the US do not believe the lived experience of Black folk. When millions of Black folk say that they are being mistreated by the police, white folk don't believe it. They need to see it for themselves, to be able to say "Oh my God the Black people were telling the truth this whole time!" 10 seconds of smartphone footage is more believable than decades of testimony from 40 million people.
