Buddy racial profiling is well known to occur all around and believe it or not, we all racially profile in our minds anyways.
If given a choice between 10 people, of which there are blacks and whites, chances are, you'll pick a white guy to work for you if you're white.
I hate to make stereotypical comments but this is what is well known and IMO almost everyone will feel it too - you've heard the jokes before but honestly speaking most people will be more suspicious of a black guy driving an expensive car vs. a white guy.
Its the fact of society, and IMO the problem is - its easy to call others discriminating but being in the majority also eliminates the thoughts on the possibility others feel different about being "oppressed."
