Answer:
Uncle Carlos believes that the policeman did not kill Khalil for racism, but because he was a drug dealer. Mav, on the other hand, believes that Khalil was a victim of racism, since he was not armed, carrying drugs or weapons at the time he was murdered.
Explanation:
Khalil. a black boy, was killed in a police approach while picking up a hairbrush in his car. The policeman hit Khalil with several shots, and Khalil posed no threat.
Uncle Carlos, a black policeman, does not believe that the policeman was acting out of racism, since Khalil disobeyed him and was a boy who, in fact, was involved in the drug tafico. However, Mav knows that Khalil was not on drugs or weapons at the time and that he suffered abuse of police authority, as well as racism.
