These events come to light as the United States is confronting decades of issues surrounding systemic racism and chronic mistreatment of minority communities by police. The death of George Floyd, a black man who died last month when a white Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for nearly 9 minutes, has sparked protests in the U.S. and internationally.
Aside from their deaths being captured on video, there are other similarities in the way both men died.
