There’s a very good post over at Racialicious comparing how white missing children are treated and handled differently than missing minority children. Read the post over at their website.
From the article, it states that according to the FBI over 40% of missing children (those under 18) in the US are Black, Hispanic and Asian. I wonder what the numbers are in Canada. I bet Statscan has some data on this.
I haven’t really paid attention to whether missing minority children cases are handled differently in Canada. But I wouldn’t be that surprised if they are. It probably also differs between Provinces and cities.
