i havent been in the US for 5 years. the whole world follows our headlines and is terrified of our rampant police brutality. we are uniquely famous for violence.
I am in Egypt. The murder of Stephon Clark by the Sacramento Police is all over the news here. On television and in the newspapers. People here know about it and are following the case and the protests.

The weirdest part of American news is how American it is - there’s not a lot of World News & it seems really insular from outside (Can, Aus, UK)

It seems often the most unbiased coverage about us comes from other countries. Sometimes I the impression our freedom of the press has literally been turned into an illusion.

The sad truth is, most of them care more than many 'Americans' do. Please tell them to keep us in their hearts. We can use all the moral support we can get. Come to think of it, we can use all THE MORALS we can get. :/
