When Murder Becomes Ordinary
A mother collapses to the ground, clutching her son's shoes, breathing in his scent one last time. In South Los Angeles, this scene repeats with devastating regularity-yet most Americans never hear these stories. Young Black men die at rates that would trigger national emergencies anywhere else, but here the deaths barely register. The numbers are staggering: Black homicide rates have consistently run five to seven times higher than white rates for decades. In some Los Angeles neighborhoods, young Black men face murder rates two to four times higher than Hispanic men living on the same blocks. This isn't a story about crime-it's about a profound failure of justice that most of us never see.
