Calling the UK government to act upon police brutality in America

Petition Details

Not enough is being done to stop acts of racism within a force designed to keep people safe.

Additional Information

Young black men were nine times more likely than other Americans to be killed by police officers in 2015, according to the findings of a Guardian study that recorded a final tally of 1,134 deaths at the hands of law enforcement officers this year and among the thousands who have been killed at the hands of cops since 2005, only 54 officers have been charged.
