Race and Criminal Justice

The impact of "drug war" on the color community is tragic. Discriminatory rulings and selective enforcement of the drug law mean that the number of blacks managed by today's prisons and corrections exceeds the number of people slapped by the country. Caucasians are engaged in drug crime at a higher rate than blacks, but blacks are imprisoned for drug offenses that are ten times faster than whites.

Several progresses were seen. In 2010, Congress passed the Fair Arbitration Act (FSA), a decade-long bipartisan partnership aimed at reducing racial differences caused by the strict cocaine rule of law and restoring criminals. Confidence in the justice system - trust in the community of colorful people in particular. In 2011, the US judicial committee voted to apply new FSA guidelines retrospectively to individuals declared before the law was enacted. This decision may help and reduce assurance that more than 12,000 people (85% of them blacks) get the opportunity to decide cocaine infringement reviewed by federal judges.

But there are still many things to do. It is time to end dishonesty, non-US, and unsuccessful drug warfare.

People in color are affected by systematic ethnic and criminal justice problems such as higher rejection rates with twice the odds of low-income people. People in color are most affected by the penalties and fees assessed by the criminal justice system, municipal fees for delayed payment of property tax or water charges, or the cost of private debt for delaying the payment of medical obligations and support costs There is no doubt that it is. Receiving these fines and fees (and fee reductions, alternative payment plans, little recognition of some of the inefficiencies of these programs) is due to the financial instability of the color community, and the resulting white It further exacerbates the color and wealth among the communities. equality

It is impossible to design solutions to various problems within the criminal justice system unless we talk about race. The harsh criminal justice policy that has dominated over the past 30 years has brought about over-expression of colorful people in the criminal justice system. We must force the next government and parliament to support policies that support public safety and racial justice. Otherwise, the following climate disaster will affect poor people and colored people. It is only people (tragic) who feel that those who have been historically ignored receive the least amount of assistance in the prevention and mitigation of natural disasters. Hurricane Katrina, and indifference to the angry people of the government, shows this calmly.
