>First, police disproportionately arrest people of color, especially Black people.

That's similar to saying that police disproportionately arrest men relative to women, therefore they must be sexist.




Except that men are in a position of power, black men aren't.


Use 'position of power' to argue that systems are biased in favor of a group, not against it, then use that positive bias as evidence for the groups power.

Brilliant.
