| Description: |
The rate at which African American men are involved in the criminal justice system, whether through incarceration, probation, or parole, is at near epidemic proportions. The effects on the African American family as a result are widespread. This volume takes a look at the impacts. |
| Synopsis: |
The criminal justice system has driven a wedge between black men and their children. African American men are involved in the criminal justice system, whether through incarceration, probation, or parole, at near epidemic levels. At the same time, the criminal justice system has made little or no institutional efforts to maintain or support continuing relationships between these men and their families. Consequently, African American families are harmed by this in countless ways, from the psychological, physical, and material suffering experienced by the men themselves, to losses felt by their mates, children,and extended family members. |
