Overcoming Barriers

Loopholes in the Justice System


Listen Later

Hey guys! This week we discuss potential changes to the British judiciary after reading that the judiciary may possibly get rid of the jury system all together. We also shed light on other areas in relation to faults with the British Legal System such as Racial profiling, and unfair biases as well as our day-to-day experiences with real acts of implicit discrimination in a multi-cultural society such as micro-aggressions (*TRIGGERED*). If you happen to like this episode, please share to potentially inspire others to help continue the conversation to bring about change. 
Have a look at these articles, documentaries and studies to find out more about racial bias in the justice system:
