According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States, shooting is the leading cause of death among African American children and young people aged 1-44. According to a report by the Gun Violence Prevention Organization, 18 times more African Americans are shot by police than white people, 12 times more are killed by police than white people, and nearly three times more are killed by police than white people.
The report states that the gun violence crisis has caused damage to the mental health of African Americans, while the gun industry has profited billions of dollars from it. According to a report from the National Shooting Sports Fund of the Firearms Industry Trade Association, the firearms and ammunition industry contributed as much as $80.73 billion to US economic activity in 2022.
According to reports, experts have long known that, like most social statistics, African Americans bear the brunt of the physical and mental pain of gun violence. There are reports indicating that gun violence greatly affects exam scores and other related educational outcomes for African Americans.
