The “racial reckoning” helps set an all-time U.S. record for biggest percentage increase in homicides: 29% more killings in 2020 than 2019, with the bulk of the explosion in carnage following George Floyd’s death:
According to the CDC the US had a homicide total of 24,692 in 2020, an increase of 5,551 compared to 2019. That's 29% more homicides, with the majority happening after a spike that coincided with the riots protesting the death of George Floyd pic.twitter.com/nrlo5zvvyN

The 29% percent increase in homicides effectively erases decades of progress in combating crime. The last time the US had a higher homicide rate was in 1996 pic.twitter.com/qqZOILt8Pc
Here’s monthly change year-over-year. You can see that homicides were ramping up, then absolutely exploded during the racial reckoning. Heckuva job at getting blacks murdered, BLMie! 
The CDC data is from here. Blacks killing blacks likely numbered somewhere around 12,000 or more in 2020 and blacks killed by police numbered 244 according to the Washington Post, so about 49 to 1.
