the cop thing is true and was based of a survey. obviously I don't remember the details and exact numbers, but I am not making it up. There is also an explanation for it as well. You have probably heard of the statistics explaining the ratio of black people vs. white people in prison. Slavery, discrimination and racism doesn't disappear overnight. when the law that stated slavery would be illegal was passed, discrimination was still allowed. The big cities and the wealth was reserved for white people while others where forced to settle in hometowns, what we now call "ghettos". blacks where essentially segregated to a corner of pity and poverty which resulted in criminal act. That is where the "typical black" originated and developed. When there is quite a lot of criminality, there is also quite a lot of imprisoning. The cop is more likely to pull a black man over for "looking suspicious" because of the larger criminality rate that was forcibly associated with race thanks to history. They call this equality because the law says so. It is not as easy to spot anymore because of how racism has become socially unacceptable. The "direct racism" in which you state that black/white people are stupid or something does not exist (to some extent).
