Nike picks a guy who thinks police disproportionately target black people in USA (an observable fact)

Disproportionate to the population, not disproportionate to the crime.

If a white and a black commit the same crime, a black is more likely to be arrested, and is more likely to get a longer sentence.

Because the black person is more likely to have commited the crime. Unfortunately there are racial communities of black people who partake in crime, this means that a higher proportion of black people commit crimes than white people, this means it's statistically supported to suspect black people more.


Black people don't partake in more crime, they're just charged more often when whites may be let off with a warning.

For instance, cannabis use is about equal amongst white and black people, yet black people are arrested four times as often.
