I’d rather defend an assault victim and be proven wrong than defend someone accused of assault and be wrong
False assault allegations in the US and Europe range between 1-6%. Meaning there is a 94% chance the victim is telling the truth. An estimated 90% of assaults go unreported to police via anonymous surveys, putting the false accusation rate down to an estimated 0.5%

According to the US Department of Justice, Black Women are 3.5x more likely to be assaulted than any other race. Yet, Black Women are some of the least likely to involve law enforcement at about 0.6% due to severe distrust in the judicial system (for obvious reasons)
TW A:
A National Study found that 91% of Black Women who were victims of assault were assaulted by Black Men. 75% of those men were reported to be family members, friends, trusted advisors, or neighbors. Black Women then decide between “betraying their race,” or themselves
And as you can see...
99.4% of the time Black Women choose to betray ourselves to “protect our race.”
So the next time you hear, “shawty lied on me,” from your “bro,” in regards to a Black Woman... think about this thread. Check your bias
