RESPONSE
This text is a pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative promoting the idea that the racial justice protests in the US are being supported by George Soros. There is no evidence to prove that the protests in the US broke out through “top-down mobilisation,” or that someone is financing the protests. The widespread protests against racial injustice and police brutality broke out in the US after the death of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis on the 25 May 2020. The protests followed several high-profile incidents involving African Americans and the police, invoking debates about racism in the US. See other texts of pro-Kremlin disinformation on the US racial justice protests in our database, such as claims that the US riots are a Maidan-style plot to oust Trump; that the US is suffering from a colour revolution it used to support abroad.
