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, this was the best way of photographers to assuage the racial anxieties that the protests caused, conveying solidarity featuring black people as victims. Therefore, instead of portraying the protests of black people standing for their rights, they show black protestors succumbing to white violence. This was a form to evite affecting the depiction of blacks ( that could affect the social view of that newspaper or magazine ) and mantaining the white supremacy.
