Racial Disparity in California's Prisons

Audio currently not available for this program.

African Americans in California are incarcerated at six and a half times the rate of whites. Those are the findings of a new national study by a research and advocacy group called the Sentencing Project. The study found that California's rate of racial disparity in prisons and jails is slightly higher than the national average. Reporter: Judy Campbell
