      #CharlesKinsey, who is black, was laying down on the ground with his arms up. There is no way to be less of a threat. He was shot by a cop.

      #DannyTroupe, who is white, was mad a cop have him a ticket in May; he dragged the cop through an exit ramp in July. He wasn't shot.

      This isn't an isolated example. Black people's bodies are unconsciously considered weapons by cops—no matter what they're doing.

      A black person can be sitting on a porch, walking on a street, driving in a car, trying to live a life but it's always suspicious to cops.

      A white person can too often yell stunning profanities, pull out a gun, assault an officer, and more—but their humanity remains intact.

      Cops, and pretty much everyone else, have what researchers call implicit bias—an unconscious preference for whiteness/aversion for blackness

      I've written about implicit bias in the past; I don't think much has changed:http://www.colorlines.com/articles/putting-casual-racism-trial …

      You can take an implicit bias test, and I encourage white folks especially to do so (but pls also read next tweet) https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatouchtest.html …

          If you're white and take implicit bias test, please consider not sharing results with a person of color. Please lean on your white friends.

          I say this because you almost certainly got biases against blackness. And telling people of color that is... it's awkward and taxing on us.

          Sharing results with your white friends and family and talking through it might be a lot more productive.

          Again: if you're white, please don't share you implicit bias test results with me. I'm not here to give you a cookie or to absolve you. Ty.
