We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

Implement stricter laws on the Federal Communication Commissions to end profane broadcasting

Degradation of African Americans effects society as a whole. The media is ultimately significant because of the real-world effects they have on black males’ outcomes, which can be negatively affected any time a black male is in a position where his fate depends on how he is perceived by others, particularly whites.
The real-world effects alluded to include everything from less attention from doctors to harsher sentencing by judges, lower likelihood of being hired for a job or admitted to school, lower odds of getting loans, and a higher likelihood of being shot by police. It has been shown on many occasions that police are more likely to “shoot” an unarmed black male than an unarmed white male. Implementing stricter laws would steer our youths in the right direction & less crime
