1. Brazil
Black population: 85,783,143
With almost 86 million residents with African origins, Brazil ranks as first on our list of 11 countries with highest black population outside Africa. Like in the US, the black community in Brazil is often subjected to police violence. Moreover, data shows that majority of homicide victims are Afro-Brazilians while Afro teenagers are three times more likely to get killed compared to their white peers.
