Today, we agreed on what specifically to do for the project. We will be creating an info-graphic using Adobe Illustrator. Other than that, we started doing research on what to include in the info-graphic.
I found out some rather depressing statistics and I am not entirely sure how to absorb the information. The fact are that statistically Blacks and Latinos have the highest rates of crime. What is confusing and makes this difficult is the question whether it is the races who are "violent" or the socioeconomics. It seems that when people are poor, they are more likely to commit crimes. But are these people poor because of racial discrimination that keeps them down?
I need to learn more and research the topic before I can start making conclusions.
