A Black man was arrested on an MTA train after a white woman complained about his seating; he claims racial profiling.

Alex O’Keefe, a screenwriter for *The Bear* and speechwriter for Democratic leaders, was removed from an MTA train in New York after a white woman complained about his seating position. According to O’Keefe, the conductor called police, who questioned him without speaking to the complainant, and he was arrested after refusing to leave. He shared a video showing him pointing at the woman, asserting he was targeted due to his race as the only Black person on board. The incident has sparked national debate over racial profiling and police use of force in non-criminal situations, particularly involving white individuals reporting Black passengers for minor behaviors. While the MTA has not commented, the video has circulated widely, highlighting ongoing concerns about systemic bias in law enforcement and public interactions.
