This poster was seen in Whitechapel.
The figure quoted here appears to be coming from widely reported findings from an Equality and Human Rights Commission report.
However, in London a non-white person is 6.6x more likely to be stopped and searched, not 28 times more likely, a figure that more likely relates to the West Midlands police force.
A second poster in Angel was shared on Reddit and referred to the death of Mark Duggan in 2011.
His killing was upheld as lawful in a verdict earlier this year.
