Media Bias Creates Perception of Police Systemic Racism: Professor
Evidence doesn’t support the claim that there’s “systemic racism” among police, and the media has contributed to that misperception, according to associate professor Wilfred Reilly from Kentucky State University.
“I think that present company of course accepted a great deal of the blame here has to go to the U.S. media and, to a lesser extent, the world media,” Reilly recently told NTD, The Epoch Times’ sister media.
Reilly is the author of “Taboo: 10 Facts You Can’t Talk About.” The first chapter of the book is called “The Police Aren’t Murdering Black People.”
Leaders Should Shut Up or Make Sense
National leaders need to stop saying crazy stuff.
Less than two weeks ago, following the tragic police shooting of a fleeing Minnesota man named Duante Wright, Michigan Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib drew nation-wide headlines by calling for the total abolition of police. “Duante Wright was met with aggression and violence,” Tlaib tweeted accurately enough before going on to refer to his death as a “government funded murder” and call for “no more policing, incarceration, and militarization” in the United States.
For good measure, the sitting Representative said that the accidental shooting of Wright who was killed by an officer who very clearly mistook her gun for a non-lethal weapon “wasn’t an accident.” She went on to add the opinion that American policing is “inherently and intentionally racist.”
