White Law: Racism in the Police, Courts, and Prisons - Softcover
Black people in Britain are often portrayed as lawless and criminal, especially by the police. Paul Gordon examines the ways in which black people are criminalised and disciplined by the law and its enforcement agencies. He shows how the police oppress black people and fail to provide protection from racial violence; how the courts intensify the problems in the laws and procedures they invoke; and how the institutionalised racism of the prison world further brutalises growing numbers of black people. White Law places the institutional racism of the criminal justice system within the wider context of growing public racism in Britain.
