The Color of Crime — Katheryn Russell-Brown
Why do black and white Americans perceive police actions so differently? Is white fear of black crime justified? Do African-Americans really protect their own? Should they? These are just a few of the questions posed and examined by author and University of Florida Levin College of Law Professor Katheryn Russell-Brown in her recently released book, The Color of Crime (New York University Press). In her book, Russell-Brown, director of the UF College of Law Center for the Study of Race and Race Relations (CSRRR), explores with readers a wide range of perplexing racial crucibles regarding race and the media.
