Racial Disparities in the American Prison Population:

Where Does It Come From, and Are There Any Easy Solutions?

TODAY, TUESDAY, May 24
4:30pm-6:00pm
Room 003, Rockefeller Center


Featuring Professors of Political Science Gregory A. Huber, Yale University, & Marc Meredith, University of Pennsylvania.


Mass incarceration affects many, but its consequences are concentrated on racial and ethnic minority communities. This talk will document the scope and disparate impact of incarceration, highlight the ways in which incarceration is only the tip of the iceberg for how the criminal justice system affects citizens, and examine the likely efficacy and political feasibility of proposed reforms to help reduce the scope of incarceration and the disparities in its application.
