In experimental settings, blacks of both parties and white Democrats favor black criminals over white ones in sentencing and pardoning decisions, while white Republicans have no racial preference.
The same effect shows for sentencing. Of note: black Republicans are basically indistinguishable from black Democrats, in aggregate.
This is driven by racial liberalism (believing things such as anti-black bias being a major problem in the justice system). More racial liberalism => more pro-black bias.
Both races and both Republicans and Democrats favor members of their own political party in sentencing and pardoning decisions.
"The right has become obsessed with race/neo-Nazis/etc" is wrong, the US right is colorblind in aggregate. Keep this in mind when running for office as a right-winger. The US left are genuine anti-white racists.
