Cameras are part of it. There are just too many people with cell phones along with a habit of using them when they see something wrong.
But there is also a repetition. It has been a few generations since the civil rights movement. That resulted in a big change. Still, it did not solve the problem in all aspects. Black Lives Matter did not appear with George Floyd's death. Each time clear videos surfaced, the protests got louder. They may finally be getting loud enough.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
