PROTESTS ERUPT IN WASHINGTON DC AS BLACK STUDENTS DETAINED AFTER WHITE COUPLE “FELT UNCONFORTABLE AROUND THEM”


SUMMARY:
A pair of black students had been restrained by Police in Washington DC after a white couple called the Police because they felt uncomfortable around them. One of the students was withdrawing money from a cash machine when some officers tackled him. The friend known as Mike recorded the scene and tweeted what happened to let people know the truth version.

The officers said that someone called them because of a robbery, but later they confirmed that nothing happened. Twitter has responded to this fact with a lot of people standing out for black rights, as they shout be treated just as white people.

OPINION:
America seems to be the best country in the world, but as all the cultures has its defects. Not everybody is prepared to establish contact with other cultures and this news is quite a good example of it. The two boys were treated like this just because they were black, and this isn’t fair. We should be more tolerant and accept different cultures as we accept ours.

VOCABULARY: restrained, withdrawn, tackled.
