What Would You Do? television show, showcases the contrast in responses to young white male criminals vs black criminals. Not only did people call the cops 10 times more to report the black vandals, but even sleeping black teenage boys were perceived to be more inherently threatening than the white teenagers who were actively vandalizing a car nearby. [Part One] [Part Two.]
Holy……….shit…….
but racism over though right….
I love this show. You should see their faces once they find out the kids are actors.
“That sleeping black kid looks like he’s about to rob someone”
-.-
i wish they’d show the faces of the people who called.
BLACK PEOPLE AREN’T EVEN ALLOWED TO FUCKING SLEEP WITHOUT BEING CONSIDERED DANGEROUS
do you know how often people sleep in cars? like I slept in my car a lot when I was going to school because I had nowhere else to go for two hours and I was exhausted
