Product Description
Product Description
The over-representation of black Americans in the justice system is well documented. The underlying reasons for this disproportionate representation are rooted in history and perpetuated by current practices. We know criminal convictions have a negative impact on employment opportunities, housing, and other public services. Racial disparity is a problem and a significant issue in our court system.For those working in the courts, understanding this is important, but knowing the current cases can show us how the courts are responding and what can be expected when race is a part of your criminal case. Join our experts as they discuss recent Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court and Appeals Court cases involving race.
