From the Introduction:
The Problem of Racial Profiling
In spring of 2001 representatives of the Genesee Valley Chapter of the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU) contacted the researcher about their interest in investigating the potential problem of racial profiling in the Rochester Police Department. This interest grew out of awareness of anecdotal reports and systemic research in other parts of the country that had identified racial profiling problems. Much of that evidence is reported in the 1999 ACLU publication "Driving While Black: Racial Profiling on our Nation's Highways."
