Driving while human in the United States of America:
We’ve all heard of the condition known as “driving while black:” the idea that as a black person you are more likely to be stopped even if you haven’t committed an actual crime. But in today’s sensitive and fearful times, being any number of ethnicities can lead to uncomfortable questioning and, on occasion, completely illegal stopping.
That’s why the ACLU has put this video together. There isn’t a need to panic if you know exactly what to do.
Watch the video here. It’s good. Real good.
