\n BANGKOK \u2013 Some 300 Thais and foreigners in Thailand and elsewhere joined an online protest against racism on Sunday, adding their voices to global calls for justice for black American George Floyd who died in US police custody in Minneapolis last month.<\/p>\n

With coronavirus restrictions, protesters with \u2018I Can\u2019t Breathe\u2019 messages on their arms and placards gathered on the video-meeting platform Zoom to emphasize the call in Thailand as they watched the video clip of Floyd\u2019s last moments.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve lived in three continents now. I have best friends who are from the African community, who are also black Americans and \u2026 you see a stark contrast in how they are treated,\u201d said 28-year old Natalie Bin Narkprasert, one of the event organizers.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone has hopes, everyone has dreams, everyone bleeds red, you know,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s crazy that they still have this in 2020 when in 1963, that was when Martin Luther King did his freedom speech.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group also observed 8 minutes and 46 seconds of silence \u2013 the period that Floyd was filmed pinned under a white officer\u2019s knee \u2013 to know \u201chow it feels\u201d, Natalie added.<\/p>\n

Some said racist bias existed in Asia, although it might be more subtle and that they hoped for gradual changes.<\/p>\n

The death of Floyd has set off the biggest anti-racism protests seen in the United States in decades and sparked demonstrations worldwide.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
