According to the introduction of the book “Seeing through Race” by John Berger, writes about how the media uses images where it shows how blacks are being victimized for whites to feel sympathy for them. However, sometimes the media is not telling the real story or portraying it differently. I agree with Berger, the media is used to bring sympathy to whites which can also lead to a movement. For example in George Floyd, we all knew that he died because a police officer was putting force on him causing him not to breathe and when this video was posted, it went viral and people started to protest to get rights.
