Racism Political Cartoon




Racial profiling in society causes conflict between the law and minorities. In the cartoon, the policeman’s speed radar is registering the colors white, brown, and black instead of speeds. This illustrates how law enforcement will use racial profiling and determine the quality of justice based on a person’s race. Another example of racial profiling in the cartoon is how the white policeman is determined to pull over a black driver. This shows how the policeman is biased in favor of white men because he enforces the law based on the race of the driver instead of the actual crime. Law enforcement unfairly uses racial profiling to determine who is violating the law by what race they are.
