Technically, because this city has a history of crime going back to deep mafia ties. Check old papers and before it was blacks being watched, mafioso were headliners locally and abroad. Chicago has a bad rap and national news coverage increased around the time drill music went national. Just remember, it's a world-class city way above most other "murder capitols" so it stays in headlines.

the irony that you would start this thread and post it, with the fact that you took it from a Root article (as in twitter backlash theroot.com site), which is a site that is based on anti-black cohesiveness and promoting a negative agenda of "blacks in the media"...

Because it has an entire genre of music (drill) as its soundtrack.


Alot of people worldwide mainly associated Chicago with Jordan and the Bulls before drill music took off.

Obama''s presidency is probably the real reason tho, but that drill shyt is what spreaded the whole "Chiraq" thing due to hip-hop being the most popular form of entertainment in the known universe

"Media propaganda" is the greatest weapon ever used to manipulate the image of an intended target/place/ group of people.

It has worked to perfection regarding Chicago to us outsiders.

I remember I went to Chicago for the first time about 3 years ago and the main thing I could think of was dread-headed "hittaz".

Sad but true.

Peace
Sounds like a personal problem

Chicago has been a talking point since 08 when Obama was running in 08. Drill music didnt take off until 2012.

I just see root articles posted here all the time. Don't know the backstory of the site. However, I get my thread sources from multiple sites not just theroot. Anyway, let's discuss the propaganda of pushing Blacks into a negative media story in Chi-Town and not derail. Okay dear :jawalrus:

Chicago
And the fact that it’s isolated in certain pockets of the city. The vast majority of Chicago land area is peaceful as it’s ever been... I be seein cacs walk dogs and shyt at night now in areas I never saw whites in the 90s. All of the worse projects and row houses been shut down and demolished. Places that were a no man’s land for outsiders ( if you weren’t from or knew somebody that lived there ) don’t even exist anymore to my knowledge. None of these “violent” weekends compare to what used to go down in the past. Yea it’s bad but what do people expect when that’s what we been doin for decades, like the shyt is about to just stop overnight...it’s trending down regardless and spikes up like most things In life.

That being said, people here wanted to bring attention to the violence and what has it accomplished outside of a bunch of finger wagging.
