But, sadly, few people are rising up because it isn&#x27;t happening in their back yard, or to their children.<p>Sure there will be comment threads on HN or some Facebook liking, but these are weak responses, and without more, change will come very slowly, and in the meantime thousands more will be trampled on, abused, violated or murdered.<p>The majority of people who are rising up are only the marginalized people who are the primary victims of police abuse and injustice. All you have to do is look on Twitter and look at the color of people who do the most tweeting about police injustice.<p>There is no way this would or could continue if a significant amount of the privileged population rose up.
