Entre protestas, Torombolo Arrestado

Después del trágico asesinato de George Floyd, las protestas en Estados Unidos pidiendo verdadera justicia e igualdad no se hicieron esperar.

Cole Sprouse, conocido por su papel como “Jughead” en “Riverdale” y mejor conocido como “Torombolo” en Latinoamérica, no tardó en solidarizarse con la causa, saliendo a las calles de Santa Mónica, California.

Sin embargo, no esperaba encontrarse en problemas con la ley, tal y como su personaje ficticio. Fue arrestado junto a un grupo de protestantes pacíficos. Se les pidió retirarse pacíficamente, y según su testimonio lo hacían, pero parece que el poder judicial norteamericano cambió de opinión llevándose finalmente a todos en custodia.

Al respecto lo describió en su cuenta oficial de Instagram:

A group of peaceful protesters, myself included, were arrested yesterday in Santa Monica. So before the voracious horde of media sensationalism decides to somehow turn it about me, there’s a clear need to speak about the circumstances: Black Lives Matter. Peace, riots, looting, are an absolutely legitimate form of protest. the media is by nature only going to show the most sensational, which only proves a long standing racist agenda. I was detained when standing in solidarity, as were many of the final vanguard within Santa Monica. We were given the option to leave, and were informed that if we did not retreat, we would be arrested. When many did turn to leave, we found another line of police officers blocking our route, at which point, they started zip tying us. It needs to be stated that as a straight white man, and a public figure, the institutional consequences of my detainment are nothing in comparison to others within the movement. This is ABSOLUTELY not a narrative about me, and I hope the media doesn’t make it such. This is, and will be, a time about standing ground near others as a situation escalates, providing educated support, demonstrating and doing the right thing. This is precisely the time to contemplate what it means to stand as an ally. I hope others in my position do as well. I noticed that there are cameras that roll within the police cruisers during the entirety of our detainment, hope it helps. I’ll speak no more on the subject, as I’m (1) not well versed enough to do so, (2) not the subject of the movement, and (3) uninterested in drawing attention away from the leaders of the #BLM movement. I will be, again, posting the link in my story to a comprehensive document for donations and support.

Destaca que el actor desea que su mala pasada, sea vista en el contexto adecuado: ¿los arrestaron, pero no atacaron al ser personas blancas? ¿será que por ser un actor blanco lo dejaron libre? ¿qué pueden hacer para ayudar al movimiento?

Espera que de una manera u otra la atención sea redirigida al movimiento de “Black Lives Matter” o “BLM” por sus siglas en inglés, y para esto ofrece links en su historia donde los ciudadanos norteamericanos puedan hacer donaciones para apoyar a la población más discriminada de su país.
