Book Synopsis African-American Males and the U.S. Justice System of Marginalization: A National Tragedy by : Floyd Weatherspoon
Download or read book African-American Males and the U.S. Justice System of Marginalization: A National Tragedy written by Floyd Weatherspoon and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-06 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African-American Males and the US Justice System of Marginalization provides an overview of the economic and social status of African-American males in America, which continues to deteriorate at an alarming rate. Weatherspoon posits that in every American institutional system, from birth to death, the journey of African-American males to achieve racial justice and equity in this country is ignored, marginalized, and exploited. The American justice system, in particular, has permitted and in some cases sanctioned the marginalization of African-American males as full citizens. Weatherspoon examines the idea that African-American males are disproportionately represented in every aspect of the criminal justice system, and that the marginalization of African-American males in America has a long and treacherous history that continues to negatively impact their economic, political, and social status.
