So these numbers are likely significantly higher.  In MN, 19% of Minneapolis’ residents are black, yet 63% of those killed by police are black.  Most of the information for this post came from: https://mappingpoliceviolence.org/ - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) #### **Stay on top of the latest blog posts from Two Bettys** Subscribe by filling out the form below. ### Posts by Tag - [20th Anniversary (1)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/20th-anniversary) - [Cleaning Tips and Tricks (6)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/cleaning-tips-and-tricks) - [Green Cleaning (1)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/green-cleaning) - [Holiday Prep (1)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/holiday-prep) - [Interview (1)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/interview) - [Social Justice (13)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/social-justice) - [Spring Cleaning (1)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/spring-cleaning) - [Sustainable Living (8)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/sustainable-living) - [Two Bettys Green Clean (2)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/two-bettys-green-clean) - [Two Bettys Mission (9)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/tag/two-bettys-mission) [![Star Tribune: How Two Bettys Got Through the Worst of 2020](https://twobettysclean.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/tb-anna-shamira-strib-1000px-1.jpg)](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/how-two-bettys-got-through-the-worst-of-2020) #### [Star Tribune: How Two Bettys Got Through the Worst of 2020](https://twobettysclean.com/the-betty-blog/how-two-bettys-got-through-the-worst-of-2020) 2020 struggles faced by employees and small business owners, including the impact of COVID-19, financial hardships, and the fight for survival.
