second white person shot by police in two weeks in the US
Why is their race important?
This is such a weird sentence to say out loud.
You got that from "the recent shooting"? What about recent shootings in other countries?
i have media literacy and am aware the internet is made by burgerland
Don't be an ass
We have to teach the USA folks that not everything revolves around them. They will have to get used to it anyway.

Mods there remove videos they don't like. I had one up of a suspected agent provocateur burning a flag at a protest and then trying to disappear but the protestors corner him. It got a lot of attention and mods randomly removed it saying fuck the American flag
It wasn't an endorsement of their policies, just a place that the videos you asked about have been popping up.

For now. .world mods are deleting these like crazy, but the guy has a website and is asking for contributions. https://crimesofice.org/

tl;dr
On Lemmy? The local Lemmy communities for the communities most impacted. Currently, most of what I see if on https://midwest.social/c/usa@midwest.social.
Outside of Lemmy?
mastodon.social
This is where I have found most raw footage, plus stabilized and slowed footage.
The local news stations for that area has the more verified info plus overviews.
Snapchat map for that area show some of the improvised barricades and troop movements.
Unfortunately itβs a Twitter link but hereβs a video of the shooting.
Honestly I use Instagram a lot and it's full of personal videos. They get shared over and over and it's hard to get them removed. So they are generally on there.
Not a Lemmy resource, but if you do want reasonably unbiased news that gets suppressed - especially in certain countries, Wikipedia does cover some of it - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events
