One of the challenges on this issue is that some incidents black people feel are racist discrimination are in fact happening to everybody of all races, so they are not racially discriminatory. For instance, blacks in one town complained about being cited for violating "quality of life ordinances", and the ACLU said such laws should be repealed. Well, in the suburbs, such laws are very important to most people, which is why they exist and are enforced, less so in urban areas. Years ago, some blacks complained of poor service at a restaurant chain. Well, I ate there numerous times and always had poor service (I stopped going). I wondered if they were really being discriminated against, or just got the same lousy service as other people did.
