I live in the New Orleans area. Although i was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, ive been down here for one and a half years.
The murder rate in New Orleans has been high for a long time (since the 80s) and nearly all of the murders that have happend here have been black on black.
Recently though, there has been more people on other race who have been killed. Ever since then, the media has started to pay more attention to the murders in New Orleans. But people, this has been going on here for decades. Why is it all of a sudden making world news? Is it because the murders that have recently been committed arent black on black? Or is there another reason who it has all of a sudden made world news recently?
