That’s funny, but inaccurate. You would be hard pressed to find a black person that hasn’t received the vaccine. Almost all blacks are masked up and have been since day one. They bought in to covid like they vote, in unison and blindly. Not hating, just stating a fact.
ETA: It’s also unlikely any black person would say “call the police” these days. MSM has convinced them cops are only out to kill black people.
ETA #2: Okay...I did a little research on the subject. Apparently they aren't getting vaccinated at a higher rate that whites, in general. If anything, it's slightly lower than whites overall. My bad...I made an incorrect assumption.
Carry on.

Not a fact. Most of my black friends and their families took a hard pass on the vaccine. I only know 1 couple that took it.

Congrats. Your black friends are anomalies.
ETA: See above. I was wrong. Overall, they are getting the shot at a slightly lower rate than whites, in general. My bad.

Among the 57% of Americans for which ethnicity data was available who have had at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, the majority are white while only about 15% are Hispanic and 9% are Black: both lower rates than their proportion of the US population. Fewer than half of US states have vaccinated more than a third of their Black populations, according to data provided by Bloomberg, while more than 40 states have done at least as well with white and Asian people.

9% of the total vaccinated come from a demographic that makes up 13% of the population...so yes, they are.

Black folks fear-masking - yes. Getting the vaccine? I'm not so sure about that. If Black America were stampeding vax sites, I don't think they'd have Haiti "Earthquake Relief" frontman John Legend on TV hawking how "this is our shot", imploring people in "the community" to get it.
Same for the "get the shot so girl's weekend trips can start back" PSAs, etc.
For better or worse... Since Tuskegee experiments, black folks have been a little skeptical of public health initiatives.

I live in a historic district so I have wealthy black neighbors and poor black neighbors. Most haven’t gotten the vaccine.
In our local grocery store black customers are masking infinitely more than white folk.
