Fatal Police Shootings Bar Menu
This visualization presents a stacked bar chart of fatal police shootings in the United States, with the X axis showing the victim's race and the bars color-coded by the victim's "flee" status at the time of the incident. The chart uses a count aggregation to display the total number of fatalities per race, with each segment representing a different flight behavior. Built with React and the Vega-Lite API, it loads data from the Washington Post's Fatal Police Shootings database via d3.csv, while the chart is rendered using vega and vega-tooltip for interactive details. The appearance is customized through a Vega-Lite config that adjusts font sizes and axis colors for readability.
