D. Problem/Solution: What are we Doing to Help Stop Racism from Police Officers Against African Americans?

# data[].attributes.body
Many people are finding solutions to police officers being racist towards African Americans. More recently police wearing body cameras has become a big deal because of all the brutality towards black Americans. A problem with body cameras for police officers is it costs a lot to produce enough for all the officers to wear. Each camera costs around $189 to make and $739 for camera maintenance and video storage. Some states including New Mexico, and Maine are passing laws that state for all cops to wear body cameras. This will be a major helping hand with ending racism because we can see how the police are dealing with African Americans. We can see if they are treating them badly and if they are we can give them punishments like sending them back to training or relieving them of their duty for a little while. If they are treating them well then we can show other police officers the footage from their camera and they can see how they should act towards people of color. There are also some groups trying to help African Americans against racism like Black Lives Matter (BLM.) The BLM community was founded in 2013 but has been more prevalent in 2020 because of all of the violence towards black Americans. What the Black Lives Matter movement is trying to do is stop black lives from being systematically targeted for demise. Their main solution is to protest. There have been protests in all 50 states for BLM some being violent and some being peaceful. Another problem has been spreading the word about African American lives being treated harshly. The solution is social media. Tik-tok, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook have been passing the word about BLM around so lots of people can see it and help. By spreading this information around more people can get involved with helping black Americans be treated like normal people. More people can participate in protests which shows how many people care to help the country. There are many challenges we are facing but we are finding ways to resolve them.

C. Causes/Effect: How do people respond to the Police Being Rough Towards African Americans?

# data[].attributes.body
Police officers have been showing racism towards African Americans for decades. On December 1, 1955, a black woman named Rosa Parks was riding a bus in Montgomery, Alabama. She was then told to give up her seat to a white man but she refused. Parks stated that she had been pushed as far as she could stand to be pushed and that she had decided that she would have to know once and for all what rights she had as a human being and a citizen. She was then arrested for violating a segregation law that stated African Americans must give up their seat for white people if the front seats were full. Because of her arrest a group of black people led by Martin Luther King Jr. boycotted riding the bus until the law was lifted. This led to the bus company almost going bankrupt because 70% of bus riders were African American. On November 13, 1956, the law was taken away and black people could sit wherever and whenever they wanted on the bus. On March 7, 1965, Martin Luther King Jr. and 600 other marchers were trying to march from Selma, Alabama to Montgomery, Alabama when they were attacked by police men with whips, nightsticks, and tear gas. They were forced to turn back around. Then they tried again on March 9, but police officers blocked their path yet again. As a result of these 2 failed attempts, a US district court sent army troops to escort MLK and his now 2,000 marchers to Montgomery. Coming back to the present day, 56 years later racism is still going on. As Derek Chauvin was sitting on George Floyd’s neck, George kept saying over and over again “I can’t breathe” but Chauvin didn’t move and Floyd died. Because of his death the quote “I can’t breathe” has been a major phrase that protesters have been using to express their feelings towards racism. All of these things show how bad our past is but we can still improve in the future.

B. Chronological/Sequential: The Death of Breonna Taylor.

# data[].attributes.body
My name is Kenneth Walker and I will be telling the story of how my girlfriend Breonna Taylor was killed. It was March 13 when we were laying in our bed watching tv when there was a loud banging on the door. We asked who was there but there was no answer. The banging got louder and someone was yelling open the door. My heart was pounding when I got out of the bed and I could tell from the look on Breonna’s face she was terrified. I grabbed my gun and ran to the hallway with Breonna when suddenly the door was broken down. In shock I fired my gun and I heard someone shout in pain. Then I heard bullets flying everywhere. Suddenly Breonna fell to the floor screaming. I looked down at her and her clothes were covered in red. She had been shot 6 times. Then police officers came storming in the hallway yelling put down the gun. I immediately dropped it and put my hands in the air. I will never forget the day police officers including Jonathan Mattingly, Brett Hankison, Myles Cosgrove, and Joshua Jaynes killed my loving girlfriend. She was a medical worker saving lives just to get hers taken. Now it is February 11 and it has almost been a year since the shooting. For the rest of my life I will have to live with the haunting fact that she died right at my feet and there was nothing I could do to save her.

A Concept/Definition: What is Police Brutality?

# data[].attributes.body
Police brutality is when police officers are being excessively rough to people. African Americans are affected by this three times more than white people. On May 25, George Floyd was minding his own business when the police officer Derek Chauvin came over and sat on his neck for nine minutes straight. A few minutes later he couldn’t breathe and he passed away. Police brutality against African Americans has sparked up in the summer of 2020 with lots of protests happening around the US. On May 26 and 27 over 140 US cities were protesting against the police. On June 6 there were 50,000 to 80,000 people marching against police brutality in Philadelphia. African Americans specifically are being treated horribly by the police just because of their skin color.
