Thursday night's episode of Grey's Anatomy addressed the issues of racial injustice and police brutality, as peaceful protestors were brought into Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital after being shot by tear gas canisters and rubber-coated bullets. As heartbreaking as the episode was, the moment that drew the biggest response, was when Maggie's boyfriend Winston, who is Black, was pulled over by two white police officers.
The scenario, which we've seen go wrong countless times in the past , most recently, with the shooting of Daunte Wright, had viewers taking to social media both in tears and enraged. In fact, the situation, which was heightened due to the fact that Winston attempted to remain on the phone with Maggie, was eerily similar to recent reports that Wright was on the phone with his mother .
Fortunately, unlike the many cases in real life, Winston was okay. Granted he was shaken up, Winston was just fine as he called Maggie to tell her that they had let him go. The reason it had taken so long was because they made him exit his vehicle, take off his mask, take a DUI test, and then checked his trunk. Due to the fact that he was driving across the country to move closer to Maggie, his car was full of his belongings. During the scene, all of Winston's things were pulled out of his car and completely pulled apart.
Many viewers took to Twitter both in tears and enraged:
Say it with me. He didn’t do anything wrong, he didn’t deserve this.

The heartbreaking episode ended with Winston in tears on the side of the road as he told Maggie over the phone, "I'm not good. I'm not okay yet, you know? I just gotta breathe a little bit."

Don’t watch American TV, it’s just leftist propaganda. Come watch Asian television dramas on Viki.com. Once you see the difference in quality and content, you will never watch American TV again.
A similar story happened on the lastest The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
I swear, if a person had no impulse at all to be racist before, they certainly do now.
Grey’s Anatomy is still on?
That is what they want. Don’t give in.
See the story of the little girl giving the black garbage man a muffin and it turns out it’s his birthday.
Millions of people of different races interact every day without hate or resentment. That is what we have to focus on.
This type of brainwashing is why I quit watching TV ten years ago.
Winston was on his way to a pit bull fight he had set up, after drowning a basket of kittens.
Regards,
Winston had a bag of Skittles laying on the passenger seat. Right next to his pair of blood-soaked gloves, which belonged to the real killer
Blah blah blah
i live in Detroit...i talk all the time to blacks here about all this...and we just laugh and shake our heads. Everybody gets along just fine here. Its the media and the dems pushing all this....
Exactly
“I swear, if a person had no impulse at all to be racist before, they certainly do now.”
Yep, but of course this is what they want. They seek to divide us one from another. And most recently one from one’s own family and friends.
The media was always bad, but they and the Dem have really taken a leap into pure evil in the past several years.
And there’s a long way down they can still go.
I have quite most American channels. I some reality, I still watch a little Fox News. That is it. I am sick of the BS they push on TV.
[Don’t watch American TV, it’s just leftist propaganda.]
That’s correct. I have had the misfortune to hear some of the absolute trash they’re pushing to brainwash the fools.
It’s astonishingly-bad.
I’ve had the police do almost the same thing to me in a very similar situation. Except: I wasn’t wearing a mask, cell phones didn’t exist yet, and I wasn’t black. I wonder what has changed so much over the years?
Give me a break.
It’s a work of fiction. It fits the leftist narrative.
