Just watched the 2019 miniseries #WhenTheySeeUs and a Netflix documentary Oprah Winfrey Presents: When They See Us Now. As a Finn up here in the north safe and sound I haven't heard the 1989 Central Park case, but seen the racism in the USA through the news, TV and documentaries over the years. It's devastating.

Oprah Winfrey to the Exonerated 5: "So, what do you want to say about this cycle that you now have been a huge part of? Of injustice and racism?"

Kevin Richardson (who was sentenced as an innocent 14 years old boy): "Here we are 30 years later. And not too many things have changed. I'm so happy and ecstatic that we can start the conversation now and make sure there will never be another Central Park Five. And make sure we have the platform to make sure of that. But I understand what Antron means. It is bittersweet. Because watching this is painful. But it's necessary. It needs to be watched." #Racism #USA #BlackLivesMatter

Uffff! Qué rabia 😡 que da Felicity Huffman en #WhenTheySeeUs

#WhenTheySeeUs was so difficult, and so important, to watch. Mainly, I hope people remember that what was done to the #CentralPark5 was not an isolated incident — the criminal legal system was designed to lock up Black, brown and poor folks.

A lot of people seem to think #WhenTheySeeUs is an example of the criminal justice system “failing,” but it’s actually a snapshot of how it works every day.

This Tweet was sent after NYC settled in June 2014. 12 years after the Central Park 5 were exonerated & convictions vacated. In Oct. 2016, one month before he was elected, he still claimed they were guilty. This spiteful man is president. #WhentheySeeUs https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/480672486342664193

“The world is his oyster,” DuVernay said. “But he lives in a world that doesn’t see him in the same way it sees Ansel Elgort or Timothée Chalamet. My highest hope is that the industry rises to his talent.” #WhenTheySeeUs https://twitter.com/latimesent/status/1135297537471070209
