## Caption

Five years after New York ordered every police department to rethink how and against whom officers use force, police across the state are using more force – and against Black residents at sharply disproportionate rates – according to a Newsday analysis of more than 30,000 incidents.

Out of 972 people subject to serious force by Nassau police between 2021 and 2024, 48% were Black, the analysis found. Nassau’s population is only 11% Black, according to 2023 American Community Survey data from the Census Bureau.

Suffolk police used significant force against 918 people in that time, 40% of whom were Black in a county that’s 7% Black.
