I have first hand experience that seeing police brutality doesn't typically change the minds of these people. My parents would literally see a black man being beaten up by a bunch of cops and holding his hand up to protect himself and say "look, he's resisting". They are super sensitive about suggestions that they might have some internalized race hate.
