Criminal Justice v Racial Justice
Latest News
A renewed focus on tackling ethnic minority poverty and inequality is needed to reduce racial disproportionalities in the criminal justice system, a new report by Runnymede has argued.
Following the Stephen Lawrence verdict, our new report Criminal Justice v Racial Justice argues that now is the time for a new approach to tackle race inequalities in the criminal justice system.
Writing on the Runnymede blog, our director Rob Berkeley has argued that the Stephen Lawrence verdict is a “call to action” to end racism.
He states that despite changes in the law since Stephen Lawrence’s murder, the UK’s police, schools, councils and health service still regularly offer a worse service for people from black communities.
Trust for London, in partnership with Runnymede, has published a new report on preventing racist violence.
The report finds that racist violence continues to be a serious problem in the UK, particularly amongst young people in London.
