Stories told through news media and documentary films

  Stories told through news media and documentary films continually illustrate the inequities in the criminal justice system. In general, these inequities fall along race and class lines. Considering the multiple components of the system (i.e., law enforcement, the courts, and prisons), where are the greatest injustices found? And what should be done (i.e., policies implemented) to change it? Explain your response and use evidence and examples from the readings and film to support your argument.
