My mistake. They’re 2.5 times more likely to be killed by police and 5 times more likely to experience use of force. Not sure this helps prove your point though.

I saw a study once that blacks were also more likely to resist arrest just based on interviews with people on how they'd behave.
Blacks distrust police more than whites so they're less likely to comply thus they suffer more brutality and it starts the cycle again.

You’re also ignoring the crime stats by race. Black men commit significantly more crime than any other demographic. Meaning they have far, far more interactions with cops. Now yes some of them can be attributed to unfairness in the justice system, but some of that is also because there is a higher prevalence of crime in their communities. Not entirely the cops fault in that case.
I believe there are plenty power hungry cops out there. Definitely some racist ones too. There’s a poster on the OT claiming to be a cop and supports segregated neighborhoods. Cops are somehow held to a lower standard than your average person when it comes to the law and morals. Too much militarization as well.
But cops have millions of interactions with black men on a yearly basis yet a few hundred of those interactions result in a death. Out of those few hundred, a large % featured a shootout between the cop and deceased. Cops killing an unarmed man is not as prevalent as you think.

Black people commit violent crime at rates much higher than whites. They relatively have more interaction with police than whites.
