Yes I do fear Black men

Rachel,
Tulsa, OK.

Black men are many times more likely than White men to be thieves, rapists, and murderers. When I see a Black person I am more fearful. This is a natural reaction, it is the same reason that most White people in my city live in White neighborhoods, because living in those Black neighborhoods means being many times more likely to be victimized. I understand that it is not fair that these Black men can’t walk down the street without fearing that people suspect them of being criminals. I can’t walk down the street without fearing that I will be robbed or raped.
