Just A Thoth | The Hidden Crime Statistics Of U.S Crime Statistics | Are Black People The Face Of Crime? | Part 1

Image
White Lives Matter  How often do writers, researchers, and news reporters discuss statistics without acknowledging the hidden statistics ? In the case of many crime victims, intimidation tactics, silencing, threats, and gang stalking prevent many of them from speaking out against injustice. The stories that go untold are hidden crime statistics that many do not acknowledge or even consider in most cases.    Being more vocal than others and discussing the issues important to the black community can get you watched by authorities. Nobody wants the extra smoke or to be canceled by corporations when looking for employment, so people shut up.   By not saying anything, we are all being complicit in the systemic racism and bias that black people face on a day-to-day basis. The topic of crime is no different when it comes to biased reporting and comments by people who have no clue what they are talking about.    The FBI crime data in 2019 shows that the whit...

Dr Phil Faces Backlash Over Reparations Being An Absolute Disaster For The Recipients

Image
  Dr. Phil's recent remarks on a proposal by Duke University's William A. Darity Jr. that every Black descendant of slavery should receive $350,000 as cash reparations have sparked a heated debate on social media. Darity believes such reparations would help address the massive wealth gap between Black and white people, which he estimates at around $840,000 ( Darity , 2021).  " In the U.S. today, the richest 1 percent of households owns 37 percent of all wealth." ( Shapiro , 2013) On the other hand, Dr. Phil disagrees, arguing that disbursing such a large sum of money to any group of people, irrespective of their race or socioeconomic status, would be an "absolute disaster."   The issue with Dr. Phil's comment is that it falsely ass umes a future outcome . One thing we all need to learn about the future is that it is not 100% clear/certain. Other nationalities that have been paid reparations know what's it like even to have the option to dec...

The wealth disparities have become just as large, if not larger than what they were in 1968.   " 1968 : Adjusted for inflation, middle-class Black families had an average household wealth of about $6,600 in 1968 compared to around $71,000 in wealth for white middle-class households, according to the Survey of Consumer Finances (a 10.7 times greater amount)."(Adrianna J, Forbes, 2023, para 11).   According to Brian L(2022) " The richest 1% now own 40% of wealth ( Saez and Zucman 2016 ), and the share of households with no or negative wealth is rising ( Keister and Moller 2000 ; Pfeffer and Schoeni 2016 )" (para. 4).  Whether it is workplace discrimination, unjust hiring practices, or lack of being able to go back to school due to financial constraints, the barriers are ...
