Summary

"Systemic racism is subtle-and perhaps more widespread than blatant racism. In a way it can be seen as a collective racial prejudice, in which White people, often unwittingly, behave in ways that harm Black people. The United States has constructed a system of law enforcement in which the races are treated unequally. Any reform of the criminal justice system must begin with an end to systemic racism"--, Provided by publisher
