ROME — Pope Francis is supporting demands for racial justice in the wake of the U.S. police killing of George Floyd and is blasting COVID-19 skeptics and media organizations that spread their conspiracies in a new book penned during the Vatican’s coronavirus lockdown.
In "Let Us Dream," Francis also criticizes populist politicians who whip up rallies in ways reminiscent of the 1930s, and the hypocrisy of "rigid" conservative Catholics who support them. But he also criticizes the forceful downing of historic statues during protests for racial equality this year as a misguided attempt to "purify the past."
The 150-page book, due out Dec. 1, was ghostwritten by Francis’ English-language biographer, Austen Ivereigh, and at times the prose and emphasis seems almost more Ivereigh’s than Francis’. That's somewhat intentional — Ivereigh said Monday he hopes a more colloquial English-speaking pope will resonate with English-speaking readers and believers.

#MeToo, George Floyd was a violent thug who’d assaulted a woman in her home and had a criminal rap sheet.
Where is the global outrage over the police killing of the white guy years BEFORE George Floyd with a knee on his neck? They laughed at him and even wondered if they’d killed him with no one bothering to check his eyes or his pulse. All caught on supressed bodycam footage (since released).
If they HAD given a damn about the white guy (who was the one who’d called police to the store), perhaps this potentially lethal manuever would’ve been reviewed or even prohibited.
Thousands murdered every month in Africa but the Spaniard bird brain is upset about an accident on a back street in the US?
