QSS 30.06 By the Numbers: Race, Incarceration and Politics
More than half a century after the height of the Civil Rights Movement, inequalities between black Americans and white Americans persist. Across a myriad of measures---including health, employment, income, wealth, education, and incarceration---black Americans are fundamentally different than whites. Leveraging contemporary data and modern quantitative techniques, we evaluate black-white racial gaps by the numbers and among other things consider how racial inequalities in the United States might alter the American political landscape.
