A Day in the Life
WANTED
FOR
DRIVING WHILE BLACK (DWB)
AND RELATED ACTIVITY
Robert Person
You've got to wonder …
"I didn't know what I was getting stopped for. Everybody had music up loud. It wasn't my seat belt, it wasn't speeding, it wasn't drunkenness, it wasn't anything like that. He didn't tell me why he stopped me. Of course, I figured it was because I'm black, I've got a nice truck and all of that. I'm used to it. I get stopped all the time, but I never got stopped because of music." — Robert Person (from the Herald)
How often does this happen but the incident doesn't get the media spotlight because the citizen isn't a Major League ballplayer?
