Will the Real Racist Please Stand Up?

In the recent incident between a White Cop and a Black Professor, the question of race has once again, come to the front. *

There are two versions on this story:

ONE: White Cop shows up to a house where a break-in is suspected and finds a black man in grubby clothes, who becomes belligerent, threatening and uncooperative in response to the White Cop’s request for ID. White Cop repeatedly askes Black Professor to calm down, finally arresting Black Professor for disorderly conduct and threatening a police officer.

TWO: Black Professor opens door to White Cop, who barges into his home, demands ID, which Black Professor kindly gives him. White Cop ignores ID and arrests Black Professor for disorderly conduct when Black Professor attempts to peacefully state his rights and defend his home.

So, what do you think: Did White Cop stereotype Black Professor, assuming he was a criminal because he was black? Did Black Professor stereotype White Cop, assuming he was a racist because he was white? More Here...
