This book provides an empirical study of media and law enforcement bias in reporting and investigating homicides of African American women compared with their white counterparts. The author discusses the symbiotic relationship between media coverage and the response from law enforcement to victims of color, particularly when these victims are reported missing and presumed to be in danger by their loved ones. Just as the media are effective in helping to increase police response, law enforcement officials reach out to news outlets to solicit help from the public in locating a missing person or solving a murder. However, a deeply troubling disparity in reporting the disappearance and homicides of female victims reflects racial inequality and institutionalized racism in the social structure that need to be addressed. It is this disparity this important study seeks to solve.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50395018428689,"sku":"CIN1611861780G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1611861780.jpg?v=1763117537"},{"product_id":"no-human-involved-book-cheryl-l-neely-9780807004562","title":"No Human Involved","description":"\u003cb\u003eAn urgent examination of the invisibility of Black women and girls as victims of targeted killings, and the lack of police intervention and media coverage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e When Black women and girls are targeted and murdered their cases are often categorized by police officers as \"N.H.I.\" - \"No Humans Involved.\" Dehumanized and invisible to the public eye, they are rarely seen as victims. In the United States, Black women are killed at a higher rate than any other group of women, but their victimhood is not covered by the media and their cases do not receive an adequate level of urgency.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Utilizing intensive historical research of cases in cities such as Boston, Cleveland, Chicago, Detroit, and Los Angles, Cheryl Neely calls attention to serial cases of Black female murder victims and a lack of police action. Neely approaches each case and story with detailed care. Instead of focusing solely on the killings and the murderers, she highlights the lives of the women and girls and their communities that never stopped fighting for justice. With media neglect and police indifference, Neely argues that because law enforcement is less likely to conduct serious investigations into the disappearances and homicides of Black women, they are particularly vulnerable to become victims.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Diving deep into the unseen and unheard, Neely uses personal interviews, court records, media reports, and analytical data to understand how and why Black women are disproportionately more likely to die from homicide in comparison to their white counterpoints. Sounding an urgent alarm, \u003ci\u003eNo Human Involved\u003c\/i\u003e contends that it is time for Black women's lives to matter not only to their families and communities, but especially to those commissioned to protect them.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50984512618769,"sku":"NIN9780807004562","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51215785951505,"sku":"NGR9780807004562","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51331673981201,"sku":"CIN0807004561G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52814286127377,"sku":"GOR014627090","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52865442218257,"sku":"GOR014648537","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0807004561.jpg?v=1769684888"},{"product_id":"no-human-involved-book-cheryl-l-neely-9780807021484","title":"No Human Involved","description":"Im Juli 2016 wurde beim Auktionshaus Sothebys in Genf ein Manuskript mit dem Titel Nag-Hammadi-Kodex XIII eingebracht. Nach anf nglicher Skepsis konnte jedoch die Authentizit t der uralten Handschrift best tigt werden. Die wirkliche  berraschung waren aber die ersten S tze, die  bersetzt wurden: Dies sind die eigenh ndig geschriebenen Worte des Jesus von Nazareth in Gedenken an seinen Zwillingsbruder Didymus Thomas, der versehentlich von den Gefolgsleuten des Pontius Pilatus gefangen worden war und gekreuzigt wurde. Zuerst wurde angenommen, es handle sich -wie bei einigen Schriften der Nag-Hammadi-Codices - um ein apokryphes Evangelium aus dem 2. Jahrhundert, bis sich herausstellte, dass das Manuskript zwar in koptischer Schrift verfasst war, aber auf eine aram ische Urversion zur ck ging. Das letzte bisher verschollene Fragment des Nag-Hammadi-Kodex XIII erz hlt nach zweitausend Jahren die wahrhafte Geschichte des neuen Testaments aus dem ungew hnlichen Blickwinkel des historischen Jesus von Nazareth.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52153757925649,"sku":"NGR9780807021484","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52970434822417,"sku":"NIN9780807021484","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780807021484.jpg?v=1769685973"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-cheryl-l-neely.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
