Abstract

Police brutality has a long history of causing havoc in the Black community. The impact of police brutality on Black men has been intensified during the coronavirus pandemic when the world witnessed George Floyd's murder on video by a white male police officer. This state of affairs caused international outrage and protest that has highlighted how Black men have been disproportionately impacted by police brutality and placed at risk for contracting COVID-19. As university professors and administrators, the authors are constantly concerned about how police brutality impacts Black men under their tutelage on a college campus. The authors argue what must be addressed is the never-ending racial pandemic continues to plague the Black community, especially men. Higher education environments are critical components of the Black community, especially in producing an educated Black male population. This chapter offers solutions to support Black males against the racial pandemic.

高等教育中的黑人男性讨论警察暴行、抗议和冠状病毒大流行对黑人男孩和男人的影响

警察暴行在黑人社区造成严重破坏的历史由来已久。在冠状病毒大流行期间，警察暴行对黑人男子的影响加剧，全世界都目睹了乔治·弗洛伊德被一名白人男警察谋杀的视频。这种状况引起了国际社会的愤怒和抗议，突显了黑人男性如何受到警察暴行的不成比例的影响，并面临感染COVID-19的风险。作为大学教授和管理人员，两位作者一直关注警察的暴力行为如何影响大学校园中他们监护下的黑人男性。作者认为，必须解决的问题是，无休止的种族流行病继续困扰着黑人社区，尤其是男性。高等教育环境是黑人社区的重要组成部分，特别是在培养受过教育的黑人男性人口方面。本章提供了支持黑人男子对抗种族流行病的解决办法。
