A Black man was racially profiled by white residents in a Long Beach, California neighborhood for simply sitting in his car and waiting for his yoga class to start.
Ezekial Phillips had just dropped off someone near the California neighborhood where he parked his car. He decided to rest for a few minutes before driving to his nearby yoga group. He was in the midst of listening to his Bikram CD when a white woman approached his vehicle around 1 p.m in May.
