Mostly because I’m a woman, and crimes are typically committed by men. If you think that the worth, the most racist thing that can happen in a society is for a man to be stopped by police because he matches the description of a perpetrator, you are priveleged.

Yes, thankfully women are not nearly as over-policed as men. Racial disparities exist among women, too. I hope you appreciate both privileges. And ask the families of Sandra Bland or any other African American killed by police whether racial profiling is the worst racist thing

If white women were incarcerated at the same rate as black men, we would have been intentionally targeted, and racially profiled. This, incidentally, is the intent of the CAREN Act. It’s in the name; it is to criminalise white womanhood.

You know what’s white privilege? The believe that black neighbourhoods are “overpoliced,” when people who live there actually want more policing. Some say that unarmed white men are disproportionally killed by police during arrests, but I suspect the numbers for all races are

And you keep saying that it’s white privilege to amplify what black community leaders and individuals have been saying for decades and have repeatedly taken to the streets over, while you parrot right-wing (mostly white) talking heads on what black communities SHOULD believe.

Quite the opposite. It actually is not. But some of the groups opposing it are, as are the news agencies pushing that false narrative.

I strongly suspect we are not watching the same media. The one I watch has people crying over all the murders, and the one you watch is all puzzled about the sudden spike in crime It’s actually ordinary black people who call the cops on criminals And yes, BLM is Marxist AstroTurf

Understanding the little black empire in America is the key to understanding these appearances. The Black middle class benefits from the continuing chaos & death in the ghettos. Black leadership benefits from all the extortion. Some elements, akin to Farrakhan have other hopes.
