Tekenya doesn't look like an Amber? I know this sounds like I'm playing the race card, but it's more complicated than that. Wasn't the original Amber a younger girl as well?
I think we all know too well the cable news fodder of "lost attractive blonde" plays better than a missing African-American woman or girl.
I hope the Durham Police becomes more sensitive to these cultural memes if and when this sort of thing happens again.
Just sayin'.
