Race: Crime, Law & Incarceration
This board explores the history of racial inequality in the criminal justice system. Police violence is one dimension of the problem. For instance, a recent study demonstrates that Black males are 21 times more likely than white males to be killed by police & high-income Blacks were just as likely as low-income Blacks to be killed. It's also important to examine other aspects of the CJS, such as the effect of implicit bias, the way sentences are handed down by the courts & mass incarceration.
