The following visualization shows the number of deaths due to police shooting grouped by Years and Months.
Deaths By Race:
This visualization shows the death of people grouped by race.
By looking at the visualization it seems that the number of white people killed is almost doubled that of black.
The most important thing to note is that these numbers are the absolute values, not the weighted values.
According to the census in 2019 white people consist of 60.4% of the total population in the US while the black people consist of only 13.4% so after looking at this, the number of black people killed is way more as compared to the white.

Conclusion:
By looking at all the visualizations it is clear that the police in the US is not just and not only Black but White and races as well as not safe. It’s not that the whole police department is corrupt but there are some police officers because of whom the whole department has to suffer.
In some of those corrupt police officers which are racist and perform such killings which are not legal and not ethically right.
At last, all this should be taken into considerations which clearly shows that the number of black people killed is way more as compared to white and any other cast while considering population. All of this should be brought to end, All lives matter! (Black lives matter as well!)
