57 Family Law Quarterly 147 (2023-2024) |

Girl Talk--examining Racial and Gender Lines in Juvenile Justice |
6 Nevada Law Journal 1137 (Spring 2006) |
Much of the talk about juvenile justice in the United States centers on the plight of young men of color: for good reason. Their disproportionate presence in the system warrants, at a minimum, close examination and candid conversation. As critical as that discussion remains, it may be deflecting attention from the fastest growing segment of the...; Search Snippet: ...Legal Representation of Children Article GIRL TALK--EXAMINING RACIAL AND GENDER LINES IN JUVENILE JUSTICE Kim Taylor-Thompson [FNa1] Copyright ©... |
