Content: Data from Statista shows that 432 White people were killed by the police in 2020, as compared to 226 Black Americans. 2020 is not an anomaly, the data is consistent across years. Looking at those numbers, the reality is simple — White Americans are more likely to die at the hands of law enforcement officials. But, the use of force is not so cut and dry as that. If you go behind those numbers, you'll see that the rate at which Black Americans die is more than twice as high as White Americans. That comes down to analyzing deaths based per million. When you look at it that way, 35 Black Americans are killed per million as compared to 14 White Americans. That discrepancy is more pronounced in cases where victims are unarmed. In those cases, Black Americans made up 36% of deaths reported. Perception of violence and race
