Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the law school at UC Berkeley, on his new book Presumed Guilty
(9/3/21) Police officers are nine times more likely to kill African-American men than they are other Americans. Yet, in his new book Presumed Guilty: How the Supreme Court Empowered the Police and Subverted Civil Rights, legal scholar and dean of the law school at UC Berkeley Erwin Chemerinsky argues that the problem goes way beyond racism in law enforcement. Join us for a look at why it is our judicial system and, more specifically, the Supreme Court where the lion’s share of the blame for inequity in policing belongs in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.
