Hawaiian Justice
MauiTime
Weekly asks the
questions: Why are there so many Native Hawaiians in prison? And
what’s being done about
it?Update 1/7:
I want to highlight this paragraph: "[...]
racism against Hawaiians seems to be occurring within the criminal justice
system. Dr. John McDonald of the University of South Carolina did a recent
study of Hawai`i’s juvenile system. He concluded that Hawaiian
and Samoan youth are 'significantly' more likely than white or East Asian youth
to receive severe court sentences."
