Googling 3 Black Teen images vs 3 White Teen images is a stark example of white supremacy

the first hit was a gallery that included photos of both white teens and black teens, including this photo:

The 2nd hit was this: Three white teens who went 'hunting for black people' - Daily Mail
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2948853/Jail-three-racist-white-teens-drove-Jackson-specifically-beat-run-black-man-truck.html

When I used the term "three black teens" the first hit was a gallery (with a mix of criminal photos of boys and cute photos of girls).

The second hit was this:
