Color of justice

Using case examples, statistics, and historical and contemporary perspectives, this manual presents general principles and practical approaches for the culturally sensitive provision of victim services by the criminal justice system with emphasis on blacks, Asian Americans, Hispano Americans, and American Indians. The text is intended for criminal justice personnel, policymakers, victim advocates, and rape crisis and family violence counselors. It emphasizes the need for the criminal justice system to effectively serve crime victims within the increasingly racial pluralism and ethnic diversity in American society. Through its overview of current problems and major issues, the personal accounts of crime victims, and descriptions of innovative programs, it explains the psychological impacts of victimization in different minority groups and the premises and essential components of culturally sensitive victim treatment.
