Although black violence was shown in the streets, I agree with Berger that newspaper and magazine editors selected photographs based on their perceived power to draw out the of their white readers. Photography stores only wanted money and did not consider what the consequences were. They used images of violence to talk down on Black people to show how they are helpless when their not. These images would show the power of White people when they should not have power over Black people’s treatment. White people were benefited from the images feeling fearless.
