    This document contains an analysis of two issues: police brutality and domestic abuse. For police brutality, two sources are described that provide statistics on police shootings and discuss their disproportionate impact on African Americans. People have protested and shared videos of incidents online in reaction. For domestic abuse, one source is a TED talk by an activist who worked to pass laws and raise awareness. The issue affects women and girls who are subject to violence and abuse. While most supported reform efforts, one man felt domestic abuse laws would "take the fun out of marriage." Both issues are personally relevant as the writer lives near areas with police violence and domestic abuse can affect anyone within families.
