7. ...late model car...
...in a white neighborhood.

I have a friend who is a personal trainer. He is black ~~ really dark skinned, late 40s, about 6'4" tall, and he works with a lot of the Hollywood set so he goes to nice, white neighborhoods in the L.A. area like Beverly Hills and Brentwood.

He calls me periodically and reports that again he has been stopped for a DWB ~~ Driving While Black. Last time he was driving a client's car ~~ a new Jag and running to pick her up for a work out. He nearly got arrested and once the LAPD contacted the celeb, all was OK. Sheesh...

So, yeah, I most certainly can understand what you are saying.
