by Married Black Expat — I appreciate these examples of White privilege. But unfortunately many crimes committed in the Black community do not result in jail time. There are many unsolved murders, break ins, armed robberies, and rapes. Arguably more so, because criminal Black lives are valued more than the innocent Black people they kill or hurt. Resources are often devoted to solving crimes in suburban communities. For every Black male who got the book thrown at him and faced longer prison sentences, there are many who committed more crimes that they didn’t even get charged for.
