Although Gideon v. Wainright has provided indigent defendants potentially facing prison time the right to counsel, commentators and scholars have documented that the public defense system is vastly underfunded and currently in crisis. However, research has rarely examined how public defender resources impact case outcomes, and the research that does exist has yet, to my knowledge, examine how these resources impact racial disparities in case outcomes. By merging data from the Census of Public Defender Offices to data from the State Court Processing Statistics, I begin to fill this gap. Results from multivariate regression analyses with state-year fixed effects provide mixed evidence. Regardless of race, higher public defender and support staff caseloads tend to be associated with worse case outcomes. In the case of pretrial detention, I find that high public defender and support staff caseloads exacerbate Black-White disparities. With respect to sentence length, I find evidence that high public defender caseloads exacerbate Latinx-White disparities and some evidence that they mitigate Black-White disparities. In sum, these results provide strong support for the view that the public defender funding crisis harms indigent defendants regardless of race and mixed evidence regarding its impact on racial disparities in the criminal justice system.

Indigenous migrants in American custody often speak neither English nor Spanish. This leaves them at risk for family separation, deportation and due process violations. In this article, I discuss the challenges which indigenous migrants face in American immigration. Examining linguistic variations, this manuscript illustrates that American immigration policies have not adjusted to the linguistic diversity at the border—or in the immigration courts. Despite the growing number of indigenous migrants seeking asylum, most are assumed to speak only Spanish. This assumption neglects the wide linguistic diversity of immigrants and directly impacts their experience through the immigration bureaucracy. For indigenous migrants, linguicism or the exclusion of native languages can have life or death consequences—especially if they are unable to secure interpreters or relay crucial aspects of their case. As such, linguicism perpetuates an unequal justice system which fails to provide an understanding of the asylum process for those who speak indigenous languages.

The current study evaluates the impact of defendant race/ethnicity and police body-worn cameras (BWCs) on dismissals and guilty pleas in traffic violations. Despite the frequency of traffic violations and the potential for racial/ethnic bias in these incidents, researchers have yet to examine the outcomes of these violations in court. Research is also needed to assess the potential for BWCs to provide evidence and reduce charging disparities and differential pleas for minority defendants. Traffic violations processed in the Tempe, Arizona Municipal Court before and after BWC deployment were examined using logistic regression. Black and Hispanic defendants were less likely to have their violations dismissed than White defendants, regardless of the presence of a BWC. Hispanic defendants were significantly more likely to plead guilty to traffic violations than White defendants, and BWCs did not eliminate this disparity. BWCs did significantly reduce the likelihood of a guilty plea for Black and White defendants, but the finding was not robust to the inclusion of an interaction term between race and BWCs. BWCs did not significantly moderate the impact of defendant race/ethnicity on either dismissals or guilty pleas. Overall, the results suggest that BWCs have little impact on reducing racial/ethnic disparities in traffic violation processing.

The underrepresentation of Black Americans as graduate students and faculty in Criminology and Criminal Justice programs is well-recognized. This essay discusses some of the dynamics of the academy that potentially contribute to the lack of Black representation at the highest levels of the academy. Through the sharing of various experiences, this essay sheds light on how the dearth of Black men in the academy creates challenges for the few Black men that do exist in the academy.

In this essay, I reflect upon my experiences as a student, faculty member, and editor. I argue that microaggressions and macroaggressions, in classrooms and conference rooms, facilitate academic turning points—moments and experiences that turn underrepresented scholars away from academia as students, faculty, and staff in departments, centers, and institutions of higher learning. In what follows, I reflect on three moments when my career path almost diverged from its current position and trajectory, and from these experiences, I distill concrete recommendations for administrators, editors, faculty, and students on how to cultivate academic environments that enable underrepresented scholars to thrive in the academy.

Incarceration is a health damaging experience that disproportionately impacts Black Americans. Although existing research has explored broader racial disparities in the health consequences of imprisonment, little research has examined within-individual changes in health declines following incarceration. Accordingly, in this study, we examine whether the negative health effects of incarceration are more pronounced for Black versus White individuals. Data from Waves I through IV of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) and hierarchical generalized linear models (HGLM) are used to estimate within-person changes to self-rated health following first incarceration (N = 23,627 person-waves) for non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White individuals. Findings indicate that Black respondents reported within-person health declines that were more substantial than those of Whites after first incarceration. Additional analyses revealed that these race differences were more pronounced among Black males. Taken together, this study adds to the literature highlighting the racialized and negative health impacts of incarceration. Efforts to reduce imprisonment and increase access to quality health care in Black communities are needed.

Shopping While Black: Consumer Racial Profiling in America is a moderately brief book that presents the history of and research on consumer racial profiling (CRP). However, its mild brevity is not indicative of its depth. Despite being to the point, the book is an intellectually dense and comprehensive examination of its topic. It should be noted that Distinguished Professor Shaun L. Gabbidon and Professor George E. Higgins’ book is a part of the Criminology and Justice Studies series, which publishes books intended for undergraduate and graduate students, but written in a fashion that may also be of benefit to a lay audience. Although it is the authors’ recommendation that Shopping While Black is best suited for students and researchers working in the domains of Criminology, Black Studies, Ethnic Studies, Sociology, Security Studies, and Law, I concur that the book would additionally be a worthwhile introduction to CRP for mainstream readers seeking to acquire knowledge on racial profiling in shopping. According to Gabbidon and Higgins (2020), consumer racial profiling “occurs when a shopper is singled out for unwarranted bad treatment/service and/or criminal suspicion based on their racial/ethnic background” (p. xii). Although it is the authors’ position that CRP is a subject sorely in need of more research, they meticulously sift through a substantial amount of quantitative and qualitative research throughout the course of their book. They begin by unpacking the historical context and development of CRP. While walking readers through this, the authors note that profilers did not always intuitively link black people as the primary suspects of shoplifting. The book illustrates that, in fact, prior to the mid-20th century, wealthy white women were thought to be the most frequent retail thieves. Before that time period, blacks were typically unable to enter white-owned brick and mortar businesses due to the Plessy v. Ferguson Supreme Court decision of 1896—which of course legalized segregation. It was after the Brown v. Board of Education decision in 1954, as well as the 1960s Civil Rights Acts, that CRP became a widespread phenomenon. Many white business owners were unhappy with being forced to serve the black customers they saw as nothing more than violent criminals, and consequently, CRP became a normal experience for black consumers.

《黑人购物:美国消费者种族定性》是一本比较简短的书,介绍了消费者种族定性(CRP)的历史和研究。然而,它温和的简洁并不代表它的深度。尽管是切中要害,这本书是一个智力密集和全面的检查,其主题。值得注意的是,Shaun L. Gabbidon教授和George E. Higgins教授的书是《犯罪学与司法研究》系列的一部分,该系列出版的书籍主要面向本科生和研究生,但其写作方式也可能对外行读者有益。虽然作者推荐《购物》一书最适合从事犯罪学、黑人研究、种族研究、社会学、安全研究和法律等领域的学生和研究人员,但我同意,对于那些希望获得购物中种族定性知识的主流读者来说,这本书还是一本很有价值的CRP入门书。根据Gabbidon和Higgins(2020)的说法,消费者种族定性“发生在购物者因其种族/民族背景而被挑选出来接受无端的不良待遇/服务和/或犯罪嫌疑时”(第12页)。尽管作者的立场是CRP是一个非常需要更多研究的主题,但他们在整个过程中精心筛选了大量的定量和定性研究。他们首先揭示了CRP的历史背景和发展。在引导读者了解这一点的同时,作者指出,侧写师并不总是直观地将黑人与入店行窃的主要嫌疑人联系起来。这本书说明,事实上,在20世纪中期之前,富有的白人女性被认为是最常见的零售小偷。在此之前,由于1896年最高法院的普莱西诉弗格森案(Plessy v. Ferguson)的判决,黑人通常无法进入白人拥有的实体店——当然,该判决使种族隔离合法化。在1954年布朗诉教育委员会案(Brown v. Board of Education)的判决以及20世纪60年代的《民权法案》(Civil Rights Acts)之后,CRP才成为一种普遍现象。许多白人企业主对被迫为黑人顾客服务感到不满,他们认为黑人顾客只不过是暴力罪犯,因此,CRP成为黑人消费者的正常体验。种族与正义

A punitive legacy of the responses to school shootings in the United States is the expansion of exclusionary discipline. Black girls have disproportionately experienced this form of punishment as compared to white girls and non-Black girls of color. A small, but growing, body of research has examined the patterns and causes of this disparity. Current studies have made suggestions for possible solutions to address this disparity, but these recommendations are not readily accessible in a single location. A catalogue of these ideas could provide a useful foundation for policy development and evaluation. The present research note seeks to generate this resource by conducting a systematic review to identify and categorize recommendations aimed at reducing the discipline disparity experienced by Black girls. Based on this review, four categories emerged that center around: (1) culturally competent school programs, (2) enhanced teacher training, (3) spaces at school for empowering Black girls, and (4) trauma-informed student policies. This research note discusses these categories of recommendations using an intersectional framework and concludes with a summary of next steps to guide future research and policy work to address the disproportionate use of exclusionary discipline against Black girls.

This research note discusses these categories of recommendations using an intersectional framework and concludes with a summary of next steps to guide future research and policy work to address the disproportionate use of exclusionary discipline against Black girls.","PeriodicalId":45275,"journal":{"name":"Race and Justice","volume":"13 1","pages":"386 - 402"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2021-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/2153368720988894","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42647736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
