Pouring over those yellowing pages of archival newsprint, I discovered notable examples of blatant bias, misrepresentations of facts and poorly substantiated claims about particulars of acts of violence. The Opportunity Agenda study also shows that these media distortions are multi-faceted, especially relative to real-world facts.

Overwhelming evidence exists of exaggerated associations of African-American men to drug-related crime, unemployment and poverty. Too many stories associate black men with intractable problems. Men of color held in esteem by the media, while entirely worthy of praise, too often personify a circumscribed spectrum of human qualities.

Prowess in sports, physical achievement in general and musicality are emphasized inordinately. Common role models depicted by the media such as rap or hip-hop stars and basketball players imply limited life choices. When is the last time you have seen a black college professor, doctor, lawyer or scientist selling a product? What we are also seeing play out among both white and black people is a hyped view of black boys and men being coupled with criminality and violence, a lack of empathy for black men and boys in trouble, less attention being paid to the bigger picture of social and economic disparity and increased public support of more rigorous approaches to social ills, such as police aggression and longer jail sentences.
