This is worth a read, imo.

Some of the most comprehensive information we have comes from a 2001 Bureau of Justice Statistics
report examining incidents where police in the United States used deadly force to kill criminal suspects between 1976 and 1998. During that 23-year span, 42% of all suspects killed by police were black – a
figure that
comported precisely with the
percentage of violent crimes committed by African Americans during that same period. This is enormously significant because we would expect that in police forces
not plagued by systemic racism, officers would shoot suspects of various racial or ethnic backgrounds at rates closely resembling their respective involvement in the types of serious crimes most likely to elicit the use of force by police. And indeed, that is
exactly what the evidence shows.
How about the rate at which officers killed suspects of
other racial or ethnic backgrounds? In 1998, the “black-officer-kills-black-felon” rate was 32 per 100,000 black officers,
more than double the rate at which white and Hispanic officers killed black felons (14 per 100,000). That same year, the rate at which white and Hispanic officers killed white or Hispanic felons (28 per 100,000) was much higher than the “black-officer-kills-white-or-Hispanic-felon” rate of 11 per 100,000.
In 1999, criminologists Geoffrey Alpert and Roger Dunham
confirmed once again that police officers were more likely to use force against suspects of their own racial group, than against suspects from another racial group.
