Civilized people rely upon the court system to address legitimate grievances and receive some sort of restitution. Please don't tell me that white America runs the court system too.

Racial profiling is illegal?
And have you ever tried proving a racial discrimination case in the courts? It's almost impossible. Usually requiring a direct statement from someone in charge such as "I did not hire person X due to race" to be recorded.
And it isn't so much white america which runs the courts, but those with a higher economic status. It just so happens that those people more often than not are white. And many valid cases are dismissed in the courts, due often to the disparity in economics. It takes money to go to court. The court system isn't the perfect entity you are trying to make it out to be.
