Welcome to the Series
This series examines violent crime in Winston-Salem, NC, and surrounding areas from 2009 to 2025, analyzing 15 image-verified cases. Winston-Salem (pop. 255,089 in 2025) is 32.43% Black, 17.9% Hispanic, and 48.7% White, with 21.2% of Black and 43.5% of Hispanic residents in poverty—conditions often linked to instability. Key findings show a 93% Black/Hispanic male suspect rate, yet only one Hispanic suspect (6.7%) despite their 17.9% population share, suggesting close-knit communities may counter dysfunction. Culture, not race, drives these disparities. This critique targets a broken system, not any racial or ethnic group.
