Facts

Reports from the Minnesota ACLU that use Minneapolis Police Department's own data reveal that blacks are targeted for low-level arrests (Heitzeg, Smith IV, "Low level crime, livability, and racial profiling").

African Americans are "7.5 to 16.3 times more likely to be arrested than a white individual" depending on the defense (Heitzeg, Smith IV, "Low level crime, livability, and racial profiling").

Blacks make up "4.2 percent of [Colorado's] population, a Colorado Division of Criminal Justice report found that blacks accounted for 12.4 percent of the arrests and summonses in 2015" (Paul, "Black men and women in Colorado are disproportionately arrested").

NYPD's stop-and-frisk program "show similar evidence of racial profiling with blacks and Latinos about 85 percent of the time" (Natarajan, "Racial profiling has destroyed public trust in police").

"Twenty states have no laws prohibiting racial profiling by law enforcement," according to a NAACP report (Natarajan, "Racial profiling has destroyed public trust in police").

5 Essential Questions

1. In what cases would racial profiling be effective?

2. Why does the law subject specific groups of people more to racial profiling than others?

3. Can racial profiling be justified in immigration?

4. Do you think there should be more laws against racial profiling or for it?

5. Would there be more illegal immigrants if police/ border control did not racially profile?

Facts

Under the Obama Administration in 2014-2015 new rules "replaced decade - old rules that banned racial profiling for federal law enforcement" (Apuzzo and Schmidt 2).

"Federal agents will still be allowed to consider race and ethnicity when stopping people at airports, border crossing and immigration checkpoints" (Apuzzo and Schmidt 1)

"Federal agents have jurisdiction to enforce immigration laws within 100 miles of the borders" (Apuzzo and Schmidt 7).

"Officials succeeded in arguing that they should have more leeway in deciding whom to stop and question" (Apuzzo and Schmidt 2).

"Immigration policies focusing on racial profiling and criminalization of Latinos in the United States have direct implications on immigrants and their family members"(Lawrence 1)

"Today's immigration enforcement [is] increasingly rooted on racial profiling as a tactic to apprehend undocumented immigrants" (Lawrence 3)

"Particularly those who have darker skin tones and shorter statures, are more easily targeted" (Lawrence 3)

Misconceptions

All immigrants are Hispanic, more specifically Mexican

Immigrants take jobs away from American citizens

Most immigrants are in America illegally

Banning refugees from Middle Eastern countries will protect our country from terrorists

All undocumented immigrants sneak across the Mexican border

All border patrol officers are racist

Essential questions

1) Is racial profiling justifiable when trying to identify a dangerous suspect?

2) Is there a correlation with the types of people who live in poor areas and the types of people who commit crimes?

3) Does racial profiling lead to the harmful stereotyping of minorities as criminals?

4) Is racial profiling potentially "life-saving"?

5) Does racial profiling grow distrust of the community? If so, how?

Facts

Black students are punished more harshly when committing the same offenses as white students (Color lines)

Racial profiling causes the distrust of the police.

Racial profiling increased due to the war on drugs

Racial profiling is based on religion, ethnicity, national origin, and appearance.(Natarajan, Ranjana)

African americans/latinos are disproportionately stopped and searched even though they're less likely to carry contraband.(Natarajan, Ranjana)

Misconceptions

Police make decisions based on race

justice is equally applied

Most drug offenses are committed by minorities

Police don't stop white people despite their behavior

Racial profiling always ends in police killings of unarmed individuals

Facts vs. Fiction

Facts:

African Americans are "11.5 times more likely to get arrested than a white man for marijuana possession" (Heitzeg 6)

"8.86 times for disorderly conduct" (Heitzeg 6)

"16.39 times for curfew/loitering" (Heitzeg 6)

African Americans are targeted for low-level arrests (Heitzeg 2)

Only 6% of African Americans that are stoped are arrested (Video)

Fiction:

Racial profiling reduces street crime
- "number of gunfire victims were virtually unchanged" after record number of people being stopped and frisked in NY (Edwards 6)

"it is racial profiling, but it's really criminal profiling" (Edwards 4)
-"87% of people stopped were black or Latino" (Edwards 7)

Police have a real reason to stop and frisk people, "88 percent of the nearly 700,000 people stopped were innocent" (Edwards 7)

It is not okay for police to stop and frisk people, due to the Bill of Rights

People are not stopped and frisked often: in the video, the same people say they have been stopped repeatedly, even though they are innocent

Discussion Questions

1. Why can't white people be looked at by the police the same way that black or Latino people do?

2. If this issue of racial profiling has been going on for years, why hasn't there been much done to stop it?

3. Why do police still continue to stop and frisk people, even though most are innocent? Is it worth it to keep doing this, or just a waste of time for police officers?

4. What behaviors or characteristics should people have that would make it okay for police to stop them?

5. What are some basic rights that police are violating when they stop and frisk people?
