A webinar Discussing how to confront systemic racism in criminal justice education and imagine its anti-racist futures.
In the wake of calls for criminal justice reform and abolition, many criminologists are confronting the complicity of the field in addressing systemic racism (among other issues) and its role in supporting law enforcement and the carceral state.
