      THREAD: A new AP-NORC poll finds a dramatic shift in opinions on policing and race, as more Americans today than five years ago believe police brutality is a very serious problem that too often goes undisciplined and unequally targets black Americans. 1/5http://apne.ws/h8F0FKu

      Experts say the findings could be indicative of shifting perceptions among Americans following weeks of nationwide protests in response to the death of George Floyd, a black man who died in police custody after an officer pressed his knee into Floyd’s neck. (2/5)

      The new AP-NORC poll finds that 48% of Americans now say police violence against the public is a “very” or “extremely” serious problem, up from 32% in July 2015. Another 31% say it is a moderately serious problem. (3/5)pic.twitter.com/epZQDU3qGE

      The poll finds 61% of Americans think police are more likely to use deadly force against a black person than a white person. That’s up from 49% in 2015. (4/5)pic.twitter.com/DcnKSB490Z

          Americans are also far more likely to say officers who cause injury or death are treated too leniently by the justice system, 65% today compared with 41% in 2015. READ MORE: http://apne.ws/x1oHwLJ pic.twitter.com/MBvNyGsaJv

          The white numbers very likely reflect the fact that far too many people live without diversity in their communities. The people they live with, work with, and go to school with are all like they are. It's hard to understand things that you have not experienced. #Fear #DoBetter

          It's not just deadly force, it's the entire criminal justice system. Something happens at a store and the suspect is described as a black male. Suddenly every black male in the vicinity is a suspect.

          A black person is more likely to defy a policeman than a white one. They think law doesn't apply to them

          Wrong...there's countless videos of white dudes literally fighting the police and are some how miraculously apprehended unscathed but your bias blinds you to facts I'm sure...#tryagain

          What does the data tell us? We certainly have seen violence against black Americans at the hands of the police on videos and stories recently. However, in order for us to have solid dialogue around this topic, give me solid data vs. polls/opinions/emotions.
