Reimagine justice & safetythe criminal legal system was borne out of america's racist founding and continues to devastate communities of color. Data show that californians of color are disproportionately policed, arrested, incarcerated, and subjected to harsher sentences than whites. At the same time, rates of violence are disproportionately higher in low-income communities of color despite decades of landmark investments in law enforcement and incarceration. These deep-seated harms have eroded public trust in our system of safety.
