If you’re interested in learning more about some stories of missing BIPOC people, the podcast The Fall Line is a great place to start. They do deep dives into the stories of missing POC children and women in GA.

I am a self professed true crime follower. However, you are correct. A lot of true crime content is based on entertainment. I try my best to follow content creators that have a larger purpose. I follow the Crime Junkie podcast because the creators mainly cover cold cases in the hopes that a listener may have a new tip to re-invigorate a case. They also really emphasize unsolved cases of minorities. They have focused on people of color, Trans, and indigenous women who don't get the media coverage that young white females get. They sell merchandise and donate proceeds to organizations like The DOE project and DNA funding for cold cases. I think this case was a anomaly in which the determination of the public helped find her but I can see how this can easily go south.
