Mass Incarceration, Visualized
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2015
- In this animated interview, the sociologist Bruce Western explains the current inevitability of prison for certain demographics of young black men and how it's become a normal life event. "We've chosen the response of the deprivation of liberty for a historically aggrieved group, whose liberty in the United States was never firmly established to begin with," Western says.
In The Atlantic's October cover story, Ta-Nehisi Coates explores the impact of mass incarceration on the black family. Read the full story: theatln.tc/1MnL4Gf

The thing about Mass Incarceration for crimes that don't see Incarceration in other social groups.
Theres more drugs and crime condensed impoverished areas.. sure crony company politics strangleholding social stratification and not taking care of the worst situations in the country so it takes away from possibilities to jump the social stratification scale.. why do you think they call it the trap?

I had a friend who got 20 years of prison for marijuana possession. It's so upsetting to see such excessive punishment for such mundane crimes.
And the fact that its getting leagalized across the majority of the nation just adds to the irony

Well Grant, that’s because if he did he’d be telling the truth, and god forbid they’d then be solutions to that huge problem.
But see, no one will say anything about it because women hold power through voting because they vote more. So then criticising women for those horrible choices wouldn’t be a good thing for a politicians election bid.

Way to take it and make it about you, buddy.
Stay out of trouble, children. Stay in school, make good grades, and when you graduate, move on to something else productive. Join the workforce, join the military, go to trade school or go to college.
However, doing these things will not stop the predatorial policing tactics mainly projected towards the black community.

very interesting video.
The image of the web of solutions @2.05 in the video is misleading. I'd like to see the improvement of "mass incarceration" without culture changes (completing schooling, fathers in the household, abandonment of government welfare and shining a light on the values of discipline, delayed gratification and integrity). Public shaming? Halfway houses? Fines that possibly cannot be paid? Really?

Exactly, chris.
I wonder what changed in the 1980s-90s to push the government towards increased incarceration? Jim Crow was getting pushed back in the 60s-70s, was that part of it? A backlash? I know war on drugs was a huge part of the Reagan era but there were drugs in the 60s-70s too, why was 80s-90s such a huge carceral era?
@@lilithgrrrl you either don't have a grasp on the war on drugs or you're trolling because you kinda answered your own question there. After Lyndon Johnson's terms, the parties agendas kinda switched and America was pretty divided and over time grew more or less racist. The reason why the litteraly every canidate was "hard on crime" after nixon was in office was because you couldn't get elected without it. Due to propaganda and scapegoating drugs as a common problem among americans. Its lot of other stuff you should know already, but search John Ehrlichman and read his statement. Once reagan was in office it just got worse. Basically the war on drugs was an elaborate mask to hide the minority and counter culture antipathy.
@@lilithgrrrl also wanted to note that policies that were implemented severely changed the judicial and policing system, and double standards were magnified. Judges had to give mandatory life sentences for even the smallest amounts of drugs and drug deals if they were racist or not. Also other subtle factors that created and huge imbalances were things like propaganda, media, and laws that give longer sentences for the exact same drug 🤷🏽♂️. But we're all on the side of change here, I hope.

In a country with the common law and the jury system, mass incarceration is caused by mass criminal behavior.
not really, they have created new laws all the time making things that would have been a fine 30 years ago into 5 year prison terms. In several states you can go to prison for misdemeanors for 5 years that were only punishable by 30 days in jail. In the 80's our county jail in a town of 6 thousand had 22 bunks... now it has 200 and is always full. Prosecutors seek the harshest penalty they can get and judges go along with them. And GOD FORBID you have a 30 year old criminal record... you get even a misdemeanor and they send you to prison for 5 years... plus even when you are innocent it doesn't matter if you know anything about the criminal justice system because if you take something to trial the jury WILL CONVICT YOU OF SOMETHING IF YOU HAVE A RECORD... it is so common that they even have a work for it "compromised verdict.".. They all know it is the case, so prosecutors force innocent people to take no contest pleas or knowingly face a harsher conviction and more lengthy penalty for a crime they never committed... perhaps often times for a crime that never even occurred.
@Sierra Barrett Innocence projects, often sponsored by law schools, free very few prisoners.
Then you must explain why there was a mass rise in criminal behavior, the factors, remedies, etc. Was it just specifically this one group of people sharing the same race and similar economic woes turning to violent crime all of a sudden because they’re wired differently and stopped pretending to be civilized?
Highly unlikely, especially since some tenets of that are outright false.
@@wildfire9280 The mass imprisonments are caused by felony convictions rendered by juries of at least 12 after grand jury indictments rendered by separate juries of at least 12 and often more than 12 randomly selected without discrimination based on class. race, ethnicity or sex.
Stay in school,get a trade,leave other people and their property alone,work and pull your weight. There's common law in UK:- do not cause loss or harm to anyone or anything, covers everything
hey you guys said one in nine children have incarcerated parents. My question for you is when was this statistic recorded? in the slide titled "Risk of parental imprisonment by age 14" it goes from 15% to 28% which both aren't one in nine, plus you never specify what counts as a child in the one in nine section. is it 17 or below? or is it 14 like the slide says. Thanks
Wow. Powerful stuff.
imagine telling a rape victim we cant lock him up cause the incarceration rate is high... I wish the police in my country was this effective in punishing criminals
@amery smith because someone cant be "unraped" you take that to mean that the rapist shouldnt serve time? Or am I misreading that
@amery smith Yea their is still a victim but locking the rapist prevents it from happening again or to someone else .
Then build BIGGER PRISONS.
What about non violent victim less crimes?

Im liberal and i agree... I dont want dangerous ppl running free, let them rot in jail
Black people don't "commit crimes", they just magically become "incarcerated". The liberals who pander to Blacks, patronize them, and strip them of all responsibility & agency have careful use of language to make it look like all of their problems are external, and not the result of any actions they took. Trayvon Martin was shot for buying skittles, not for beating a man's skull into the concrete. 2 + 2 = 5
The illustration suggests that within the variety of ways the US could have chosen to respond to crime is "public shaming". How would that have been organized?
I hear tar and feathers are involved.
It was embarrassing for people to pay for items with multi colored money instead of giving these people a debit card give them a booklet of colored money that would shame them into wanting real money
Incarceration is the highest stress a human being can experience
No! Being a crime VICTIM is FAR MORE STRESSFUL!
im sure you know what youre talking about im just going to agree with you @@toebeans3985
Black people get longer times on some crimes on purpose prisons are for profit u gotta keep on making money so why not change the justice system and also overall during the 80’s minimum prison sentences increased for felonies
you don't accidentally end up in jail, you broke the law to get in there.

How effective are social rehabilitation programs at actually stopping crime within a community compared to incarceration? What percentage of the community are victims of crimes in a community that implements social rehabilitation programs compared to a community that implements incarceration. If the majority of African Americans that are incarcerated are high school drop outs, then what has been done to prevent this? Maybe the problem is not incarceration but a lack of quality education within the African American community?
"It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men." Frederick Douglass~American Abolitionist
-repair all the broken men all you want..start in Chicago, Detroit, Philly, DC, Balto, Camden, LA, Bronx - Jails are not big enough. We should build them and expand the death penalty to child molesters and rapists.
Social programs like head start are massive failures... I went to head start lol but only 3 of that class of 15 reached college
You do the crime you get the time, doesn't matter if a social group doesn't like the general statistic, maybe reduce crime, stick with work, and stop ignoring safety for fun.
This is eye opening! And I must say the graph designer did a great job with this video. 👍👍
Wouldn't it be cheaper, less cruel and more deterrent to just cut off a criminal's limbs?

In a truly free country, Fernando can walk down his street, past the law officer smoking a joint, throwing a net in the water at the beach next to his house, catch fish, have a cookout w a beverage from B.C. times, listen a drumming and guitar folk music being played by people on the beach next to him, sleep in his tent, and head for his home the next day and onto the fish market. ...HMMM let us see how many laws he has broken if this was say, a suburb of sorry..N.J. but say New Jersey. That's a $6000 life-changing event. Throwing a net? !!!More than three hocks on a line or using the ability to harvest fish in mass quantities? Highly Illegal. $500 Fine. Revocation of fishing privileges.You get it....Noise violations, open fire violations, Vagrancy, public intoxication. I am sure he must pay a market fee to sell his fish but that is an honest business. WE ARE OVERBURDENED WITH LAWS .... GET IT !!!! ... So sad people so sad. And it's not all a race thing. We are robots to their belief system. Neighbors against neighbor, pointing fingers, their own army is us against us. Goerge Carlson, Rodney Piper, Pres. Kennedy, Regan, and others have warned you. Someone please lay down some u tube links to open the sheeps minds...New Edit Wrote this to make ppl think, discuss. Im not hear to promote over fishing, pissing ppl off w loud music I'm not always the one discussing. Remember these are two different countries in example.

feel free to do some research first.
Well if everyone like you used nets without stopping,,,you can hurt the fish population
RealDjToddThunder That’s not why those laws are there. They’re there because licenses make money for the city.

So if the lawless won't obey the laws make less of them so the lawless look better??
@@realdjtoddthunder1323 not my point
Not everyone understands also though so much is more complicated than that and not everyone in trouble is guilty though. There is systematic corruption I personally have seen that plot and setup to ruin good people and are in a position with no way to see what is going on and no defense or means to so it’s more to capitalize on.
The system is horrible but
if you are a gang member unemployed selling weed and you are caught red handed stealing a car it stuff from Walmart then your chances of going to prison is skyrocketed compared a guy who gets off work at 530 and driving home.

Very good video!
If it was racism, all non whites would have higher rates of crime, prosecution, and incarceration. However Asians and Indians(from India) have much lower rates. Therefore, if it’s systemic, its culturally systemic. And not white cultural. 🤷🏿
2:02 A 2020 report by the Centre of Expertise on Child Sexual Abuse stated that "In the records of defendants prosecuted for child sexual abuse offences" among those in which ethnic background was recorded "the vast majority were white (89%); 6% were Asian, 3% were Black, 1% were from mixed ethnic backgrounds and 1% were ...
what does he mean with: "....a historically aggrieved group whose liberty in the United States was never firmly established to begin with"
African American's were brought to the united states as slaves and were in that position for about 350 years. They were then subjected to racial segregation and discrimination up until the late 1960s when the civil rights movement was starting a revolution. That was about 50 years ago, at that point blacks were still trying to gain positions in many different areas. Mass incarceration was introduced in the 1980s with the "War on drugs" initiative. What he means by that statement is throughout American history the Black community has face numerous severe challenges and to this day still have not had any solutions that target the problem. Jail and imprisonment is somewhat of a societal bandaid that allows the government to ignore people who have mental illness or substance abuse issues. Obviously criminals are breed in communities where poverty is rampant. Anyways I could go on and on about this, but i'm sure you get the point.
Zack thanks for filling me in :)
It's right there in the graphic image.
@darryl runnels Pretty much, yes.
@darryl runnels I wasn't aware that slavery, intergenerational trauma, and systemic issues were liberal bullshit? 🤔🧐😂
Maybe educate youngs to NOT crime can be a better solution than dont arrest
US school ranked low on education....do you think with that crappy education will fix the youngs?
Using the argument that the government is at fault for black people being incarcerated more is like saying the government doesn't treat men and women equally because more men are homeless than women. They both don't make sense
I guess the government is racist against white people as well because there's more whites in prison in America than Asians that are in prison right?
Studies consistently show that your chances of going to jail go way down if you refrain from commiting crime.
Wrongfully convinced people: *Surprise pikachu face
Telling blacks not to commit horrible crimes is like telling flame not to be hot.
a good portion of these criminals in jail are from single mothers. if we as society stop rewarding teen pregnancies we wont have this many criminals. baby mommas can have several kids out of wedlock by many diff men and we have to feed all these babies until they are old enough to be arrested for their life of crimes. it is a revolving door same cycle of illiteracy and poverty being on welfare just having babies left and right. my question is - how many years people are gonna do this until they figure out to change something for the better?
Why are these women rasing their sons alone???

cassie finally someone who understands 👍🏾
cassie - the point is dont make the mistake to begin with. Blacks want both sides of the cake always with entitlement thinking. They think robbing, killing, drugs dealing deserve second chances? Dont think so. Democrats love putting them in jail and they get 95% of their votes exclusively. That is some funny arrangement, And Republicans want to set them free- what the hell for? Keep them all behind bars! Nothing but a dead weight to society. Maybe Democrats had the proper idea from the beginning. They know exactly how to treat them and been with them the longest after all.
Hillary said she carried hotsauce in her purse and she got lots of votes. Even Pres. Johnson said “these ‘nigras’ will vote Democrats for the next 200 years.” And the overseers...Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton know exactly how to keep t(em in line.
Quelqu’un peut me traduire tout sa stp
Joining the fight !!!
Ok so now explain why all the popular music of black youth praises criminal activity if increase prison and jail population is just all persecution. If you go and do crime, you will be caught and put in jail, it's not about oppressing a certain class of people, it's about protecting the innocent victims from monsters who make it their lifestyle to prey on others.
I think its more about the amount of time given for petty crimes and first offenses ect. Black men almost always got more time and lot of them are innocently locked up not all but a lot are.
@@adenise676 Or maybe its because when boys grow up without an involved father they learn to confront authority to get their way rather than to obey the law. Again when your culture praises "baby daddy/mommy" instead of motherhood and fatherhood that's when you know, you've been bamboozled. No one oppresses black folks more than black folks.

A lot of people dnt believe in God because of the perversion that comes with it. But believe these words: He is. Wicket ways will fall. the weak and destitute will rise up.
Justice system is very lenient in America
You've got THAT right! That's why there is so much recidivism.
No it isn’t.
@@ems3832 that’s not true. There is recidivism because the American justice system is so bad at rehabilitation. They punish but do little to reform criminals. Look at other countries with less sever consequences that have lower recidivism rates. It’s because they focus on rehabilitation and programs.
2:04 it shows the web of what should be "better options" why the heck y'all but parole on there then...parole is what happens after you are released from prison. Probation is an amazing alternative dont get me wrong but there is a pretty big difference one being go to prison first and not going to prison first
But y’all praise Biden 😔 and this same man who had those principles back then y’all really think he cares now.
no praise, just want a person in charge with the ability to lead, make decisions, and more importantly restore a sense of diplomacy and dignity for the office and how united states is being represented to the rest of the world.
Better than someone who won’t condemn white supremacy
Yeah biden was a pretty trash pic for the democratic candidate
But so was trump so uuuuh

How effective are social rehabilitation programs at actually stopping crime within a community compared to incarceration? What percentage of the community are victims of crimes in a community that implements social rehabilitation programs compared to a community that implements incarceration. If the majority of African Americans that are incarcerated are high school drop outs, then what has been done to prevent this? Maybe the problem is not incarceration but a lack of quality education within the African American community? How much money do we spend on policing compared to education within these communities.

I think i have an idea that just might put an end to mass incarceration: STOP COMMITTING CRIMES !!!
I'm suprized the downvotes are so low.
why does the media not talk more about this? they are still second class citizens today.
They behave like it. Like animals.
@@daftwod You talk like an animal. It is because of people like you we are constantly being treated this way. How are we supposed to "level up" when we have never had the stepping stones to do so?
Why does the guy on the video have a thick Aussie accent if he is talking about the American penal system?
Yeah, it's usually a British or foreign person narrating and pointing out things so they seem "superior" when in fact their countries also have major issues and challenges.
I’ve witness this first hand bring Mexican growing up in the hood with nothing but blacks it wasn’t UNTILL later on I figured out it was all a scam / monopoly a type of search and destroy on a whole culture rap is crap ain’t none of the rappers today know what’s it’s really like .

Mass incarceration because mass crimes
I've come up with an idea that I believe just might put an end to mass incarceration: stop committing crimes !
horrible suggestion

Break the law, go to jail
That sounds like something Stalin would say.
100% correct, Lena. People with IQs above, say, tree bark, understand that simple concept. This idiot above, aaron pannell, apparently doesn't....
They're not taking away these criminals' liberty as much as they are protecting the liberty of the people they would seek to harm.
PRECISELY!
Stop committing violent crime then you won't go to prison it's that easy
What if your poor and you end up going to court for something that you didn’t do, and now your facing a decision, A: go to court and get a lawyer offered to you by the court, who god forbids has NO experience under their belt whatsoever, lose your case and get locked up for 15 years.
Or B: Take a plea deal and "admit” to a crime that you had NOTHING to do with, just to accept a lesser sentence of 5 years. What would you do in this situation?🤔. Then come bacc and tell me how "Easy” it is to stay out of prison.
Marlow Marlowe you find what your looking for. When you patrol predominantly black neighborhoods what color people are you going to be arresting blacks. They don’t patrol white neighborhoods because those are not the target people. 💯💯
@@Youngfleek What you're (note the correct usage of this contraction, by the way - ahem) describing represents a VERY small percentage of actual cases. Marlowe's point is that if you follow his formula, you're (there it is again) enhancing your odds of staying out of prison tremendously by default....and he's right.
@@ems3832 That doesn't make it right! Justice is supposed to be blind, not prejudiced!
@@joshuacoleman8000 I'm not saying it does.
Its not because they committed crimes, that has nothing to do with it right?...lol DONT BREAK THE FUCKIN LAW AND YOU DONT GO TO JAIL ITS SIMPLE. Stop trying to make excuses.
Power corrupts period. When the people enforcing the law break it then what? Are you really that naive to think the police can never do wrong or intentionally arrest innocent people? It happens every day. Without money for a decent lawyer its damn near impossible to prove. Wake up & open your eyes. Theres private prisons that make a profit for filling the cells. Do you think they're going to target Chad & Brad?!
@@n8err30 Time to stop playing the victims and take responsibility for your own actions.
Keep those Budget cuts to in US, especially here in CHicago. Along with cuts in NFP services, Education....Street against the Machine is what you are forcing people into, and Thank You "the Atlantic"....a picture drawing for those who don't have a clue.
It’s definitely a tragedy that we have such a high number of people locked up, but I’ve never really heard a good argument for an alternative to deal with criminals. Everyone hates mass incarceration, and it’s easy to say you don’t like it, but what realistic alternative is there? You don’t get put in prison unless you’ve committed a pretty serious crime, or have repeatedly committed crimes. I don’t think it’s realistic to say these criminals should just get some kind of therapy instead of jail time. Then they would still be free to be a danger to the public and I don’t think there are therapists that can talk criminals out of committing crimes. Therapy wouldn’t be any kind of deterrent to criminals either.

Good question. I am curious to know. Everyone has the power to choose their own actions, what programs can be made to promote choosing the right? I know my Church offers ordinances and covenants that lead along that path. I am sure there could be a similar government program that has similar commitments without religious context. Although the religious belief is the best way to reform, it is certainly possible.
You’re not wrong though so much is more complicated than that and not everyone in trouble is guilty though. There is systematic corruption I personally have seen that plot and setup to ruin good people and are in a position with no way to see what is going on and no defense or means to so it’s more to capitalize on.
Spend money. Deliver social goods.
What is sex offender treatment????? Is that what we should give to r kelly and epstein?🙄
Sex offender treatment? Oh that must be for white kids who sext. You have to realise that what started out as a political trick to gain votes by incarcerating despised minorities now threatens everyone. And then of course there is asset seizure, so being middle class will not help you. The justice system is now run by criminals. The only way out is direct action against these criminals.
Here is a idea...STOP BREAKING THE FUCKING LAW!!!!
