stereotypes.

 there are legitimate reasons to talk about racial justice
in a society where certain minorities are often on the bad
end of over zealous police enforcement.  social justice
looks a bit further into how racial bigotry has put certain
groups at disadvantages in various ways which are also
worth dealing with and acknowledging.
