Why does black on black violence and genocide go unreported until a white person gets hurt?

Answer 1

Why do blacks continually try to kill each other and erase other ethnic groups?These attrocities are largely unreported in America, so if thats where you live then you need to search other news sources.
All the other countries know/have known about the Genocides going on in Africa for years now.
Its the U.N who is reluctant to call it Genocide because then they become responsible for failing to act timeously. Take Rwanda for example. How long did it take before the U.N asked the world for help. Why is it that the U.N cannot take active action against aggressors?
By the way the U.N has got black people in its seats(kofi Annan is black), So the Question you should ask is why black on black violence allowed by othe black people ?
During Rwanda it was white missionaries and red cross workers who tried desperately to help. Yes in some cases they got killed too.Thats the risk they took.
I belong to a Save Darfur group and guess what ? , it was started by white people.
So why dont Black people try to help their "brothers" who are getting killed , starving , etc ? Why is it all about black and white with some people?
Do yourself a favour and go to SaveDarfur.com and actually try to make a difference to someones life instead of complaining.!!

FYI : Political and B9team the genocide in Darfur , Sudan ,or didn't you hear?

Answer 2

You haven't been watching the same news programs I have.

In the past 8 years I've lived in Virginia, New Jersey, and now South Carolina, and in all three areas I've seen (and continue to see) news reports of people of both races being attacked with equal air time, and all of these reports show the face of the criminal if such a shot is available. And these reports are put on the air with equal consideration and air time except in New Jersey, where the NY stations give more air time to black on black crime than others.

And exactly what "genocide" are you talking about?

Answer 3

Why is it that blacks do not like to report other blacks to the law? They seem to relish in covering up a crime...especially if a black person did it...even if the crime was against another black person. You don't see that happening that often in the white community. Why is it the media failed to show all the white people be slaughtered in South Africa? These were farmers growing crops to feed everyone. The blacks came to the farms...slaughtered these innocent people. The blacks don't know enough to run these farms...so now they are starving even more than before. Now where is the justice in that?? I think most black people have it better than they want to admit to. A lot of blacks think they are 'owed' something. Why is it blacks don't even know they were sold into slavery by other blacks??? So therefore.....why isn't their anger directed at those blacks???

Answer 4

I dont know of any "Genocide" taking place, but Black on Black reports are and have been increasing. A lot of that goes unreported...its a Ghetto thing, where it's kept in house ( Gang activity, etc)

Answer 5

If we DON'T hear about black on black violence when it happens, then it's an attempt by the media and the 'Man' to suppress the information from the masses and allow the black people to continue to destroy themselves.

If we DO hear about black on black violence when it happens, then it's an attempt by the media and the 'Man' to perpetuate a stereotype that black people are ignorant and violent.

Which would you prefer, because obviously all of us white people are involved in the conspiracy? Maybe... just maybe, we, regardless of color, are saddened by violence in our communities, regardless of the color of the victims or assailants.

EDIT:
FYI, lyyman: A speaker implies something by hinting at it; a listener infers something from what he or she hears. You can't use them interchangeably.

Answer 6

Must be your local media because here every homocide is reported on the local news. Especially black on black violence because we have a local MLK wannabe that has a protest march everytime there is a homocide.

If genocide is going on in his country, then it is blacks doing it to themselves. That's not genocide, that's stupidity.

Answer 7

Are you inferring that white on white crime is not reported and therefor the society is racist? I don't think it is right to constantly give the races involved; as the coverage is, and should be about the crime, not race. How can you decide the race without inquiring both parties about their ancestry? Are not most people mixed race in this country?

Answer 8

Sounds like you are watching media with an extreme right-wing bias such as Fox News.

Try reading a respected newspaper or listening to NPR, instead of watching TV for your information.

Answer 9

Why is the Black community itself so cavalier about violence within their own community?

Answer 10

Where do you get your information? That's not true--This is not 1972--it's 2007 and that statement is without merit
