Class solidarity is non-existent in the US. Racial issues are much more visible. Poverty tends to be chronic and society to this day attempts to dismiss it as laziness or personal failure on the part of the individual, there isn't really anywhere for a flashpoint to happen. Incidents like George Floyd's murder act as a nexus around which debate, protests, and change can form.
