I said kind of the same thing a few pages back. Per interaction with police, white people get killed more than black people. Police are killed more by blacks than vice versa. The issue is that black americans have way more interactions with the police, and some of that is racism, and most of that is poverty and lack of real opportunity. There are real policy prescriptions to be made, like spending a lot more on minority children by way of after school programs to keep them out of gangs, UBI, and the schools they go to.
As for the police? There was a great 538 podcast that went over the data and how positive results were for retraining police forces to eliminate choke holds and have lethal force as an absolute last resort. And having a certain threshold of your force be visible minorities.
But that involves more taxes and less money for little Becky and Chads posh Orange County school. So instead, we will get black out tuesdays, white people kneeling in front of black people, and no real change will exist.
It's actually pretty infuriating to watch play out.

The protesters are majority democrats who are not the anti tax people you speak of. No one loves to pay more taxes... But the the anti tax people are the Republican/Conservatives who are not the majority of people in the streets.
