Moving from them to us: Challenges in reframing violence among youth — appendix [pdf]
Saturday, August 01, 2009This appendix contains details on the methods for the literature review BMSG conducted to update the 2001 report from Building Blocks for Youth, Off Balance: Youth, Race, and Crime in the News. After sifting through hundreds of research studies that touched on either youth, race, or crime, we found 37 that were directly relevant to this inquiry. Most upheld the original findings from Off Balance, indicating that news coverage continues to distort youth, race, and crime.
