Policing the Black Man explores and critiques the many ways the criminal justice system impacts the lives of African American boys and men at every stage of the criminal process, from arrest through sentencing. Essays range from an explication of the historical roots of racism in the criminal justice system to an examination of modern-day police killings of unarmed black men. The contributors discuss and explain racial profiling, the power and discretion of police and prosecutors, the role of implicit bias, the racial impact of police and prosecutorial decisions, the disproportionate imprisonment of black men, the collateral consequences of mass incarceration, and the Supreme Court's failure to provide meaningful remedies for the injustices in the criminal justice system. Policing the Black Man is an enlightening must-read for anyone interested in the critical issues of race and justice in America."--Jacket.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 364.3496 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.3496 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Nonfiction 364.3496 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList
