According to Stacker, The American Police killed 1,144 people killed by police in 2021, according to Mapping Police Violence, up from 1,132 people in 2020. Despite making up only 13% of the American population, Black people represent 23% of those killed by law enforcement in 2021. Police brutality, micro-aggression, racism, and excessive use of force in law enforcement some would argue is more prevalent among African Americans. In today's episode, we compare the tale of African Immigrants to that of African Americans. How do Africans perceive their black counterparts who have been in America or Europe but are descendants of slaves forcefully and in most cases, brutally removed from Africa? Can we seek to understand the dichotomy of the two black African tale?
