But are the protests really founded on something significant? If they focused simply on police brutality regardless of race, that would be one thing, but the general narrative seems to be that there is a big problem of white-on-black violence in the form of cops. Now, there is such a problem, but this ignores the wider context that in this country, black-on-white violence is a much bigger problem than white-on-black violence. Much of the media focuses on black-on-white violence but relatively ignores white-on-black violence. People who buy into the narrative end up having a very misleading notion of whether it is whites or it is blacks in this country who are menaced more by violence coming from the other group. In reality, it is whites.
