ELI5: Why does it seem like police brutality is on the rise in US cities?

And why is it almost exclusively white cops versus young black males? Does the media want a race war?

There hasn't been a significant increase in brutality cases recently, and it certainly isn't like more white cops are brutalizing more young black men now than they were before. It is true that young black men are typically victims of brutality more often, but they're also victimized more by black cops as well. It's a lot more complicated than "white cops are racist."

What's happening is more that brutality cases, especially ones that are potentially racially motivated, are getting a lot more media attention as of late. It's certainly not a new problem, but for whatever reason, it's picked up traction as of late and media outlets know that if they do a report on a young black man who was killed or beaten by a white cop, it'll bring in readers/viewers.

They don't want a race war, they don't want to incite anything. They want people to pay attention to their coverage, so they will report on whatever people want to see.
