Hi All,
I don't teach crime, but got this today and need to respond to someone:
1. The murder rate is rapidly rising
2. Most of those killed are people of color.
Can someone flesh these out with sources if possible...if it's easy,
handy, and quick for you.
I thought the murder rate was down a bit along with crime overall I
would guess that the majority of those killed are persons of color.
(And, we're talking "violent crime" here...not the white collar stuff,
environmental racism, or war...which also disproportionately kills the
poor and persons of color, yes? However, if you have anything on
those, I'd take 'em.)
Thanks.
