Where did you read about "arrest more black people"? They say it points to wrong people when a criminal has black skin. You can also describe it "helps black criminals hide them self".
I'm absolutely with you being against racism and other discriminations, but exactly in this case rasims and bias is not that relevant. Overusing terms like "rasism" makes the team weaker and people start consider it as a minor thing. Like one associates "racism" with non ideal snarcamera settings, what is dangerous.
Arrests more innocent black or darker skinned people is what I meant.
I’m not overusing the term, you’re conflating two types of racism, and need to understand the context in order to understand what others are speaking about. If you just assume everyone is talking about overt racism all the time, you’re going to jump to the wrong conclusions and probably think people are being dramatic or ridiculous half the time.
