The Holistic Solution: Mobile Personal Security!

The term “Driving While Black,” often abbreviated as DWB, is a colloquial phrase that refers to the racial profiling and discriminatory practice by law enforcement of stopping and searching African American drivers at higher rates than drivers of other races, under the presumption of a violation or criminal activity. It suggests that a black individual may be pulled over simply because of their race, not because they have done anything wrong.

This term speaks to broader issues of systemic racism and has been a focal point in conversations about police practices and criminal justice reform. Reports and analyses have indicated that black drivers are disproportionately targeted for traffic stops and searches, which activists and civil rights organizations argue is a manifestation of racial bias.

Driving While Black has been a significant concern in the United States, leading to mistrust between communities of color and the police, and has become a key element in discussions about institutional discrimination, civil rights violations, and the need to address and reform policing methods to ensure equal treatment under the law for all citizens, regardless of race. The issue has gained further prominence amidst the larger Black Lives Matter movement and the increased attention to police brutality and systemic racism in the U.S. and around the world.

Even though a personal security app might not prevent an illegal police stop, the ANJEL® app equips you with the means to collect and secure digital records of the event. When you alert officers that the incident is streamed live, recorded, and stored remotely, they are expected to respond to your transparency by conducting themselves professionally. Suppose the officer does not uphold professional standards. In that case, the app provides a recorded account to substantiate your experience if the situation leads to legal proceedings.
