Black Men Are More Likely to Die of Gun-Related Homicides Than Any Other Group

According to a study published by The Journal of the American Medical Association, since 2021, African-American/black males are 20 times more likely to die of gun-related homicides than any other demographic of people in the United States of America. Overall, the rate of firearm related deaths in the United States is rapidly growing especially since the pandemic that left America's economy at a standstill.
