@Regran_ed from @cleezereport - An analysis of U.S. Census data by the New York Times shows that about 1.5 million black men are "missing" from everyday life, due to a combination of disproportionate incarceration, early death, and overseas deployment. Only 83 of them are around for every 100 black women, compared to a 99 to 100 ratio among whites. The darkest finding, perhaps, is that this disparity is most pronounced in Ferguson, Missouri—where the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown in August set off a nationwide conversation about police brutality. There, as many as 40 black men are missing there per 100 black women. North Charleston, the South Carolina city where a cop shot and killed another unarmed black man earlier this month, is missing a quarter of its black men. #missingblackmen #incarceration #blacktarget #minoroffenses #PrisonReform #death #policeshootings #murder #protestors #blacklivesmatter #blacklives #justice #racism #policethepolice #lawsarenotalwaysright #lawsarenotmorals #amerikkka #amerikkkawasbuiltonterrorism #amerikkkawasbuiltonracism #mycountryhasnosoul #mycountryhasnoallegiancetome #boycotttheflag #boycotttheanthem #takeaknee #whitesupremacistsareterrorists #whitesupremacy #whitemencausemoreviolence #BlackExcellence #BlackisBeautiful #imblackandimproud #blackhistoryisworldhistory #iammysisterskeeper #iammybrotherskeeper #ipostwhatyoucant #ipostwhatyouwont https://www.instagram.com/p/BrcLrfoFVzD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nf1h2p9dkz9x
