  • CRJ 216: Race, Class & Ethnicity

    3.00 Credits

    For much of our history, the administration of justice has always been about controlling the minority outside of the ruling class.

The purpose of this class is to critically examine the characteristics of race and ethnicity and how they are used to bias decisions within our criminal justice system. Students will investigate the past and present behavior of the courts, correctional institutions, and law enforcement officials, and the possibility of prejudiced policies and practices utilized to rule against minority classes. Additionally, interracial crime is addressed, with a focus on how the criminal justice system has inadequately addressed the correlates that lead to the perpetuation of such destructive actions.
