In this case the null hypothesis I'm referring to has been pretty stable - that police interactions should be expected to be proportional to population percentages not weighted by levels of criminality. Same hypothesis is getting traction with school discipline too.

Sure, equal outcomes for all groups will be a safely stable goal, which will indicate the necessity for progressive politics for the lifetimes of everybody alive today, and long thereafter.
