From the national law firm of Charles Jerome Ware, P.A., Attorneys and Counsellors: "Still working. Still committed. Still here to make a difference."
Is the media biased against missing children who are non-white and male? That is just one of the issues being raised in a South Carolina missing child case where the victim (the child) is an 18-month-old black boy.
This wonderful baby boy is every bit as cute as Jon Benet Ramsey or Caylee Anthony, or any other precious missing child but, despite pleas for national attention from the media, attention to this tragic case has not been forthcoming from the media.
Could this lack of attention to 18-month-old baby Amir Jennings be caused by his race, black, and/or his gender, male?
Check on this. You be the judge. Keep the conversation going.
