Punishing Race: A Continuing American Dilemma
This book addresses enduring paradoxes of racial disparities in America and the problems of race in the criminal justice system. The criminal justice system is the latest in a series of devices, including slavery, Jim Crow, and legally countenanced discrimination, that have maintained white dominance over black people. Setting out a new agenda, Tonry pushes for overdue-and realistic-changes in racial profiling and sentencing, and to the War on Drugs, to reducetheir staggering human and social costs.
