Lastly, you should be able to reflect on the way race/ethnic groups are treated when it comes to crime and the criminal justice system. Remember: this is not just talking about how police treat people. This goes beyond police think about lawyers, judges, and other parts of society. Think about who is a victim to crime, which crimes, and why. This includes things like hate crime, petty crime, predatory crime, violent crime, and etc.
