The continuation of the racist behavior of the American police; This time an attack on a young black man in Tennessee

A disturbing video of a police attack on a black man in the US state of Tennessee has been published on the country’s social media, which has caused reactions from users.

According to reports, after 25-year-old Brandon Calloway failed to stop at a stop sign, police chased him down and assaulted him after he stopped.

In their report, the police claimed that in addition to failing to stop at a stop sign, Calloway was also speeding and driving at a speed of 32 mph in a 20 mph zone.

American police claim that Calloway stopped in front of his house and went inside after being chased by police officers.

But the pictures taken by Calloway’s acquaintances at the house show that the police broke down the entrance door and followed the black man and shot him with a stun gun.

In the recorded footage, a woman can be heard screaming and asking the police to stop beating Calloway.

The woman then warns the police officers that they are acting very violently and that she is recording their actions.

According to the New York Post, police eventually removed Calloway from his home with a bloody face, but images posted on social media showed Calloway’s bloodied face lying on the pavement.

According to the police report, officers used a stun gun and a baton to subdue Calloway. The police have also charged this young black man with evading arrest, resisting, disorderly conduct, failure to stop at a stop sign, and speeding.

Calloway’s attorney, Andre Wharton, said a police officer put his foot on his client’s neck. He also told Fox Channel 13 that the face of this 25-year-old man had eight stitches.

According to reports, more than 1,400 Americans were shot and killed by the police last year.

According to the available statistics, although there are white people among those killed last year, the number of black people killed by the police is disproportionately high. According to the official statistics, although black people make up less than 13% of the US population, they are killed by the police more than twice as often as white people.

The killing of black George Floyd on May 25, 2020 in Minneapolis, Minnesota under the knee of white American police officer Derek Chauvin led to the biggest protest against racial injustice in this country in recent generations.

People across America continued to demand justice for the murders of Daunte Wright, Richard Brooks, Daniel Proud, Breonna Taylor and many others. The case of three white men accused of killing Ahmed Arberry while he was jogging in Georgia last year has drawn widespread criticism in the United States.

Although some American states have apparently changed their policies, the growing list of blacks killed in this country shows that, despite the claim of democracy and superiority in the field of human rights, it has a long way to go in destroying racism.

“I can’t breathe,” George Floyd said to Derek Schoen, a white police officer who had put his weight on his neck, in his last moments. And after him, many other blacks could not breathe either by police brutality or in deadly mass shootings that occurred with racist motives.

The results of the Washington Post-Ipsos poll conducted between May 18 and 20 (28-30 May 1401) and published on May 31 show that 75 percent of black Americans are worried about being physically attacked because of their race. take

According to the Hill website, this survey showed that three-quarters of black Americans say they are worried that they or their loved ones will be physically assaulted because of their black race.

The results of this survey were published a week after the deadly shooting in the black neighborhood of Buffalo in New York.

These results, published on Saturday, show that 70% of black Americans believe that half or even more than half of white Americans have supremacist beliefs. Only 19% of them believe that the number of white Americans with such beliefs is less than half.

Two-thirds of respondents said white supremacists are a bigger problem today than they were five years ago. In comparison, 28 percent said that there has been no change in the level of trouble-making of supporters of such beliefs, and only 5 percent rated supremacist beliefs less than five years ago.
