The whole article is basically a complaint that white users of Nextdoor.com, a site where neighbors can talk about neighborly things, in Oakland are super racist because they had wrote concerns about black people. Let's just go with it for a second: being racist on the internet is bad, ok, sure, but then actual crimes against other races must be a lot worse. So lets look at some statistics: Black/White crime
I don't have a problem with a publication reporting on how bad racial profiling is/how uncomfortable some blacks may feel in white areas, but you know that they will never ever ever write about the opposite: how actually dangerous it is to be white in many black neighborhoods, how black on white crime is many many times higher than white on black crime etc.
TL;DR: Another piece on how white people are so racist against blacks. Ignores the facts that blacks on white crime is incredibly more prevalent than white on black crime.
