The recent wave of protests following the killing of George Floyd in the United States has provided quite a few slumps of humanity, such as vandalizing statues, police violence and images of arson and looting.
But precisely in London, where the demonstrations demanding equality in police relations with the black population in the country have become a violent clash between protesters of the "Black Lives Matter" movement and radical right-wing activists and police, a moment of humanity has been documented today.
A protester from one of the far-right movements was found on the other side of the street after he and his friends beat protesters, and activists of the "Important Black Lives Matter" movement threw bottles at him. The man was left alone as his friends fled the scene, surrounded by angry protesters.
Those who saved his life from a possible Linz were three black men, small business owners practicing martial arts who decided to attend a demonstration as a team with the goal of "keeping quiet and preventing casualties." The small team was headed by Patrick Chison, a business owner and a security guard in his past who noticed the dangerous situation.
"I didn't have time to be scared. It was clear to me that I had to act fast and did my job," Chison said in an interview with Channel 4. The Cheeson grabbed the wounded protester and laid it on his shoulder, with his two friends guarding him. He crossed the crowd and reached the policemen on the other side of the street, to whom he handed the wounded man.
The Chison heroism was documented in the camera lens in the photo where he appears to be carrying the injured protester as his friend tries to hold the protester's head. The determined expression on Chisun's face reflects a sober approach. "If the friends of the policeman who killed George Floyd refused to stand up, as I did, the man would still be alive. Life is important, we have no right to stand up," he says.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has condemned extremist right-wing activists who wounded police and protesters during the London clash, saying it was "racist bullying for its own sake." British Finance Minister Rishi Sonak called the far-right protests "nauseating".
