Getting killed by police is a leading cause of death for young black men in America About 1 in 1,000 black men and boys in America can expect to die at the hands of police, according to a new analysis of deaths involving law enforcement officers. That makes them 2.5 times more likely than white men and boys to die during an encounter with cops. The analysis also showed that Latino men and boys, black women and girls and Native American men, women and children are also killed by police at higher rates than their white peers. But the vulnerability of black males was particularly striking. “That 1-in-1,000 number struck us as quite high,” said study leader Frank Edwards, a sociologist at Rutgers University. “That’s better odds of being killed by police than you have of winning a lot of scratch-off lottery games.” The number-crunching by Edwards and his coauthors also revealed that for all young men, police violence was one of the leading causes of death in the years 2013 to 2018. ht

He had a client requesting a tattoo cover up design of a skull in a headdress. He had realized it could be offensive, and called me for advice. I explained to him how a literal portrait of a dead indian romanticizes the genocide of indigenous peoples. I confirmed it is indeed offensive and explained why (check the resources at the bottom of this page to learn about it!) He listened, asked questions, and didn’t argue with me. He mentioned he’d made some other designs that would work for the cover up and would be presenting them to the client. I gave him some links and resources that he could have handy to refer to when explaining to the client how the original design is problematic at best.
