About the Event

The Rockland County Coalition to End the New Jim Crow works towards ending the use of the criminal justice system as a tool of racial oppression. Extreme racial disparities in punishment and long lasting legal barriers to opportunity for people with criminal records have come to function as a “New Jim Crow”. We focus on both consciousness-raising and policy change in Rockland County and around the United States. We work not only to change the criminal justice system, but also to eliminate the entrenched racism that has led to a new system of oppression and segregation in the wake of each effort towards racial equality in America.
