Black Americans Face Higher Risk of Arrest, Underrepresented in the Legal Profession
Are you looking for a Black criminal defense attorney? It can sometimes feel like it is hard to find one. According to the American Bar Association (ABA), only 5 percent of lawyers in the U.S. identify as Black. This despite the fact that black people make up approximately 13.6 percent of the total population. Alarmingly, due to long-standard social inequities, Black people are more likely to be impacted by the criminal justice system in our country. The Prison Policy Initiative reports that Black people make up 37 percent of the prison population nationwide and are nearly three times as likely to be arrested as white people. Racial discrimination explains much of these discrepancies.
