Kansas City 2024 Rising Crime Redux Documentary Debuts

This year high-profile Kansas City homicides of beloved locals have made it hard to celebrate "progress" of marginally falling homicide stats. 

Talk about solutions is so weighed down with PC qualifiers and pleasantries that any meaning or worthwhile idea is completely obscured.    

And for those keeping track at home . . . 

We're certain this local documentary is 100% packed to the brim with good intentions because it took moviemakers a full 3 minutes before they, inevitably, focused on racial disparities. 

Those are just a few quickly thoughts that shouldn't distract from the latest, local crime documentary that deserves a look for those of us who are at least somewhat serious about learning more . . . Check the description:

In search of solutions, filmmaker Michael Price explores successful crime reduction programs in Kansas City, Missouri, Kansas City, Kansas, and Omaha, Nebraska, inviting viewers into critical conversations about violent crime and inspiring meaningful action."
