As a black man, I understand the frustration this can bring, however this example would be anti-progressive because I can walk (while black) in an all black neighborhood (white, hispanic, asian, etc...) and still be shot and killed.
Matter of fact, it was quite common for shootings that lead to death in my surrounding neighborhoods growing up.
I am not cool with anyone being shot and killed and wish violence never had to happen...in a perfect world.
