BLACK invokes : Freedom, Power, Sophistication, Strength, Authority and Protection
In the United States, Black women and girls are disproportionately represented among missing persons. While Black individuals make up approximately 13% of the U.S. population, they account for a significantly higher percentage of missing persons reports, with some estimates suggesting they comprise over 40% of all missing persons cases. Specifically, there are reports of tens of thousands of Black women and girls missing each year, with some sources stating that in 2022 alone, over 97,000 Black women and girls were reported missing.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Disproportionate Representation:
Black individuals are overrepresented in missing persons reports compared to their percentage of the overall population.
High Number of Missing Women and Girls:
The National Crime Information Center reports that in 2022, over 97,000 Black women and girls were reported missing, according to the Office of Justice Programs.
Media Coverage Gap:
Despite the high numbers, missing Black women and girls often do not receive the same level of media attention as missing individuals from other demographics.
Activists and Advocacy Groups:
Organizations like Black and Missing Foundation, Inc. work to raise awareness about the issue and advocate for increased attention to these cases.
