There has always been a divide. I truly believe it is less now than in the past. Crime is at its lowest in almost half a century as is interracial crime. However, social media and 24 hour news can make even the slightest transgression much larger than it really is.

I second that notion. This kind of stuff always happened, but social media makes it easy to polarize and fixate on certain things that fit "the narrative"
