That's not my impression. What I see is that there is a growing awareness that in many cases it is, that the statistics bear this out to be true, -that this is much more than 'a couple'. I haven't seen people saying that every black death at the hands of police is due to racism. Why do you feel this way? Is it because of the intense media focus upon these recent cases, where it seems that unarmed black men were unnecessarily killed by police? BTW, I suspect that your sentiment will likely make people doubt that you are actually a person of color. Do you realize that? What are your thoughts on that?
