Do you believe that the media portrays young black students in a positive light?

I think the media does not portray young black students in a positive light. We are not portayed in a positive light because the media always put the focus on teen violence. By violence; I meant gang activity ,the drugs, and even pregancy. All of those subjects are the key vocuses for young black teens. The dropout rates are also one of the major topics for black teens. Our young black students whether it be college or high school students drop out more than any other race in America. With that said,the media always find a way to portray young black students in a negative & disrespectful light.
