Often, in the wake of instances of police brutality against African Americans in the US, pro-black activist organizations call for cuts to the police. Examples include the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest (CHOP) in Seattle and calls for "abolition now" and to "defund the police" across the US after the death of George Floyd.
