  23. Equal Justice For All: Who Goes To Prison ? • Justice Department reports that one in eight black men in their 20s or early 30s were behind bars last year, compared with 1 in 63 white men. • 72-87% of those in prison are functionally illiterate. As the saying goes "If you think Education is expensive, Try ignorance"...... • In 1980, about 40,000 Americans were locked up for drugs-only offenses. Now the number is 450,000, three-fourths of them black or Latino, though drug use is no higher in those groups than among whites.

  24. Capital Punishment • 74 percent of Americans surveyed say they favor the death penalty for people convicted of murder in a 2003 Gallup poll • Despite its public support capital punishment remains controversial in the US

  25. Capital Punishment • Of the 85 prisoners executed in 2000, 49 were white, of which 6 were white Hispanic; 35 were black and 1 was American Indian.

  32. Capital Punishment: Phillips Archival Study • Phillips (1980) recorded reports of murders and capital punishments publicized in London between 1858 and 1921. • Immediately after a well‑publicized execution, homicides dropped about 35%. • Several weeks later homicides increased above the rate that would have been expected if no execution had taken place. • When averaged over a period of six weeks, capital punishment did not influence the number of homicides.
