Weaponize the police
Calling the police to impose force compliance and submission on African-Americans in situations where no crime has been committed. These calls to the police involve claims that are exaggerated or false. This tactic is often used by the white majority to force African-Americans to comply with a white person’s demands when there is no legal recourse. In these situations, white people know the police are racially biased toward the mainstream and use this power to make African-Americans fearful of refusing unreasonable demands.
