In part one we discussed how crime is an idea defined by the state, not by morality, how harm is a product of oppression, and most harm committed between black people is not racially motivated therefore the term black on black misleads us in understanding what occurred. 

In part 2 we will be speaking with Jacques Lesure. He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Educational Policy Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Earlier this year he had a piece published in Race-Baitr called "The Problem With Using Proximity in Poverty to Dismiss the Fallacies of Black-on-Black Crime." He essentially argues we need to move beyond the liberal and conservative binary of so-called black on black crime that either blames poverty or blames the victim for the problem.
