Missing Black and brown people rarely get media attention, group says. Here are 18 who vanished in N.J.

A 5-year-old who disappeared from a park. A teenager who went to the bank and never came home. A young mother who never arrived to pick up her toddler from the babysitter. The Black & Missing Foundation was created to highlight cases involving people of color that often don't get much news coverage.
