Preferred term

Native Americans and sentencing disparities  

Definition

  • Research examining the differential or discriminatory application of the law in the United States has typically neglected the position of Native Americans. The majority of studies examining race and disparities in adjudication outcomes have concentrated exclusively on the legal treatment of African Americans.
