and the video was no worse than the george floyd. the reason no one cared is, is tony temper happen to have white skin and the sight of of someone with white skin having a reaction like that with the police is not as upsetting to most americans as is when the person is black. you can understand that double standard because of american history, because people, myself included, we grow up knowing about the history of slavery and jim crow, seeing videos of black civil rights protesters, peaceful protesters being hosed down in south. and that creates a certain a template in our mind that us to respond differently. but we should really reflect on whether is the healthy template to have for the rest of. is it a healthy situation where you have a white guy killed the bike by the cops at the same way that a black guy is killed? and when the white guy is killed, it's not even a national news story. but when the black guy is killed, the entire world goes to protest. i'm not sure that this is healthy for either white americans or black america.

that is exactly what happened to george floyd.se their stun guns too many times for too long. >> is there a common thread about where this happens? who the victims are and why they are restrained? >> we found in a number of cases the location was actually the home of those who died. sometimes they were having medical emergencies. like potential drug overdoses. their families were calling 911 to get medical assist and the police arrived. to try to control the person to get medical help, the police went too far. another thing we found is the toll fell hardest on black americans. even though they represent only 12% of the population, they were about a third of those who died. the last commonality we found was why they were in these situations. again it was until health crises , a lot of drugs, that is what brought them to the attention of law enforcement. reporter: you say about half of these cases, the role of the police is cited. for causing or contributing to the death. and the other cases, how they attribute these deaths? >> and

this is after george floyd. this is after the uprisings around the world. every one of those officers were black men. tyree nichols himself was a black man, the chief of police in tennessee at the time, i believe she still there is a black woman. and yet we still end up with something. looked like rodney king, if you ask me. so unfortunately we i refer to this as cosmetic diversity. right. there's genuine diversity, diversity and thought, etc. diversity in which the true diversity the true value of diversity is leaning into the people and what makes them unique. ask them how they can make things better by simply satisfying the employment discrimination aspect is not enough. you know, we have to go further if. we're going to get more women, more black, more people from different religions, name it in certain spaces, then have to tap into them to get the changes that we need. so unfortunately, that itself will i mean, are the all the anecdotal situations that can happen because that officer is has a cultural so similarity to someone. sure. but in terms of of

and that's exactly what happened to george floyd. or in o'cases they'd use their stun guns, too many times, and for too long. >> when you look at the victims in these cases, is there a common thread about where these instances happen? who the victims are? why they were being restrained? >> yeah, we found that in a number of cases, the location was actually the homes of those who died. that was because sometimes they were having medical emergencies. like potentially drug joaf doses and their families were calling 911 to get medical assistance and the cops arrived and in order to try to control the person to get medical help the cops went too far. and another thing we found as far as commonality is that the toll fell hardest on black americans. even though they represent only 12 october they have nation's population, we found that they were about a third of those who died. and probably the last commonality we found was why they were in these situations. again, it was mental health crises. it was a lot of drugs. and that's what brought
