I find it strange that they never seem to have access to recent school photos, or any identifiable pictures from the previous 5 years or more.
Even if you found a recent picture where they aren't trying to act gangster, teenage black boys look like adults anyway and adult black men always look like a threat.
So regardless of any other factor, the only way to make black boys evoke empathy from an image is when they still have enough child in them to override it.
It's interesting that you're not saying anything controversial, yet it seems extremely controversial.
I wonder what a black person would say. Do they think the same way about teenage black boys or is this some legit race difference, and do black adults think "teenage white boys" look like adults or find them frightening? Doubt it.
And yeah I'm sure this will end up on r/whitepeopletwitter/whitefragility. Put me in the screenshot.
Blacks intentionally play ignorant about their thuggish kids and project criminality and nastiness onto everyone else's kids
Put me in it a second time, I'll stand by what I said and double down on it.
It's a legitimate race difference. it's not just boys. They grow up faster. It's an evolutionary strategy thing. For short lives.
