Black and Missing

Really thought provoking and challenging doc. I don't understand (or maybe I do) why there are so many 1 star ratings out there. I devour true crime docs and docs in general. This show is what I've been looking for. So strange that people bothered to give 1 star but didn't bother to write a review hmmm.

A thoughtful, informative docuseries exploring some cases of missing Black women, men, and children as well as an organization seeking to find the missing and to prevent others going missing.

At less than 60 votes, the series has a rating less than 4 - looking at the demographics, it's clear than there are a good number of men who downvoted it. Misogyny, IMDb, you really ought ought to address it.

It's very frustrating seeing such a disproportionate number of 1-star ratings but nobody giving a review saying why. Ignore the 1-stars, it's just trolls trying to discourage and discredit Black media (yet again). Very informative and well-done documentary. If you're a fan of true crime, it's a good watch. Came here because of an episode of My Favorite Murder I listened to, and glad I've taken the time to watch the work this women are doing with their foundation.

I saw that over 40 "reviewers" rated this well-done and compelling documentary with one star. It's sad that people really can't handle the truth when it's displayed so heartbreakingly in front of them. Hard to defend a one star rating when you don't write a review to go with it. "Black and Missing" is a stellar documentary about two determined women who are filling a void that is too often forgotten.

How can someone that is not ignorant and racist rate this documentary as 1 star?

People (racists) are complaining "oH wHy MaKe iT aBoUt RaCe?!", and that is so stupid. Facts, statistics and the documentary are telling us that black people missing are being overlooked by law enforcement and the media, and the point is to equalize things, not ask for benefits or to make institutions care less about white people.

People complaining are the same that wear T-shirt "aLL LiVe mAtTeRs" and claiming racism isn't structured into our societies.

It's really disheartening to see the ratings because this is a REALLY good documentary, they aren't preaching anything, there are a lot of interest information and stories and everything is really well tied together.

Congrats to HBO and to all these brave people fighting to get their loved ones back or to finally find some closure.
