    Examining the Differences in Image Between White and Minority Gangs
    • 2022

      Examining the portrayal of gangs in media, this research paper delves into the contrasting representations of White and Minority gangs. It highlights how White gangs are often depicted as antiheroes with redeeming qualities, such as community support, while Black gangs are framed solely through a lens of violence. The study investigates the concept of "White Gang Privilege" and its implications, offering a critical analysis of cultural perceptions and biases in the representation of gang dynamics in contemporary America.
