When George Floyd was White...

You didn't read the link DT. Didn't stop you from posting what you did anyway. The meta-analysis controls for a variety of explanatory confounds. Here, you are proposing that skin tone affects economic upward mobility, which in term drives delinquent behavior and this explains the difference in police contacts and arrest rates. Only, that's controlled for, so no.

Moreover, research is quite consistent that blacks experience more discrimination by police at all socioeconomic levels. The gap is extremely large on the top of the economic spectrum, in fact, mainly because white levels fall off a cliff but black males continue to be policed aggressively like lower class counterparts. Black females, interestingly, see a substantial benefit from economic status.

(It's because police are biased to view black males as more suspicious and threatening.)

Okay. My mistake. But I did ask "Does your statistic control for poverty?" and you answered my question.
