curiadousa0jane,Now the geenaderal pubadlic opinadion is on what peoadple see on the crime news. I am ssure that the vioadlence conadtributes to rural areas prejaduaddices. The good, hard workading peoadple, who are the majoradity don’t make headadlines. This is a big problem.It is. Humans have a hard time difadferadenadtiadatading (in gut reacadtion, anyadway) beeetwn “most teradroradists in the world today are Musadlim†with “most Musadlims in the world today are teradroradistsâ€. Simadiadlarly, we have a hard time difadferadenadtiadatading beeetwn “most of the vioadlent crimes I see on the news are peradpeadtrated by dark-​​skinned peoadple†and “most dark-​​skinned peoadple comadmit vioadlent crimesâ€.It serves us well when proadtectading ouradselves indiadvidaduadally from potenadtial harm. Not so well when we’re on the receivading end of a simadiadlar prejaduaddice. And not so well when we build sociadeties that are too large to peradsonadally know everyadone within them.
