Because systemic racism already exists. Minorities all over the world are treated worse. The Indigenous people's problems are ignored. "Just make equal laws" doesn't happen. They are enforced differently.

Someone else said it perfectly "Sounds like you’re fine with it happening, you’re just not fine with it being written down"

If there is problem with enforcement the laws in different ways, then address that directly. Don’t create laws separating people by genetics. That’s the opposite to what equal society should have! Why would you help one poor person and will not help another poor person just because their genetics is different?

And I will ignore your “sounds like” comment as completely made up statement.

So instead of preventing the laws from being written in ways that will affect minorities disproportionally, correct the legal system for following the law and instead train them to follow the law in a different way than it was written. Got it, no way that will go wrong.

Also, this isn't about poor people. The fact you equate indigenous people to poor people is extremely racist.
