Alton Sterling, a black man from Baton Rouge, was killed by police there this week in a case that reignited tensions over police violence toward the African-American community. Another case in Minnesota, the shooting death of Philando Castileduring a traffic stop, similarly sparked outrage and protests in many parts of the country. Adding yet another layer of tragedy to the week, five police officers were gunned down by a sniper in Dallas during a protest over police violence. Seven others were wounded.
