It's not even about skin color, not really. It's about poverty and people not having a chance to get out of it. I would also commit crimes if I felt my life had no future and im white.

As a consequence, black people commit crimes and white cops become racist because they see that. But its not really about skin color if you look at the full picture.

I think this is misguided and a bit too optimistic. Racist cops don't become racist because of their lived experiences, they're already racist when they take the job.
