i watch a lot of true crime:

dateline, 20/20, 48 hours...not ID.

but i have noticed..there is a narrative of black people often being the perpetrators of violent crime.

do you believe this is a deliberate narrative on the part of media, with the intent to divide?

or..do you think it is mostly representative..

orrr..do you think the stories are chosen solely on the intrigue of said stories?

So you mentioned it is true crime....

So if its a narrative, then the producers are purposely skewing common, well worn, historical data about what race and gender commits the most amount of violent crimes by a large margin.

In this day and age, that's unlikely and in my experience is the exact opposite of the narrative being pushed about Black crime now in the 2020's.

@SumKindaMunster to clarify: you believe it is a skewed and intentional narrative?
