United For Police Accountability
This is the level of the problem. Over 10,000 people have been killed by police in the United States in the last 10 years. These numbers include men, women, trans, Black, White, Hispanic, Native, those with mental illness and people who were unarmed.
Anyone can experience police violence. The number of police killings in the United States is much greater than in other developed countries. And every person killed by police leaves behind traumatized family members and friends.
