Virginia exposes deep racial divide in US

Riots happened between white supremacists and demonstrators in Virginia, and caused many conflicts in the US. We interviewed a professor on US studies, who commented:

Social policies adopted by US administrations since the mid-1960s have failed to eliminate racial bigotry. And the resurgence of white supremacists after almost five decades suggests the racial divide runs deep in US society.

Trump's poor judgment and handling of domestic affairs aside, his administration has also been criticized for its inclination to create divides. And given Trump's relatively short track record, he is more likely to seek temporary remedies, rather than a permanent cure, for the Charlottesville-like violence.
