They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that’s power. Because they control the minds of the masses.” Creating a world that is safe, just, and equitable for all requires us to interrogate every system and structure that exists, including our mass media.

We must be vigilant about calling out these inequities because of the direct impact that the media has in shaping our perceptions.
