[Podcast Episode] The Crime Myth: Why Immigrants Are Not to Blame for Crime in America
You’ve heard the claim: Immigrants are driving crime in America.
But here’s the truth—it’s a myth. In this episode, we unpack the data that most headlines won’t. Spoiler: Native-born citizens commit the vast majority of crimes, from theft to homicide. And immigrants—documented or not—are statistically less likely to be incarcerated.
So why does the false narrative persist? We explore how fear gets weaponized, how politics distorts facts, and why it’s time to shift the focus to the real root causes of crime. Facts matter. And so does setting the record straight.
