Wisconsin is Number 1 in Locking up Blacks: More than half of all Black men in their 30s - 40s in Milwaukee County have served time in state prisons
/
From [HERE] “Murphy’s Law” at UrbanMilwaukee.com covers a new report by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Employment & Training Institute (ETI) that found that more than half of all African American males in their 30s and 40s in Milwaukee County have served time in state prisons. “The numbers are truly shocking,” says Marc Mauer, executive director of The Sentencing Project.
No state comes close to Wisconsin in imprisoning black males. The study found that 12.8 percent, or 1 in 8 of African American working age men, were incarcerated. That rate is 32 percent higher than the second worst state, Oklahoma, and nearly double the national average of 6.7 percent (or 1 in 15).
By contrast, Wisconsin’s rate of incarceration of white men is similar to the national average and the rate for Hispanics is actually lower than the national average. “It certainly is disturbing to see this rate of imprisonment for black males,” says Mauer.[MORE]
The United States has less than 5% of the world's population. But it has almost a quarter of the world's prisoners." One in four Black men is likely to be imprisoned. This issue is not even an after thought in public discourse. Presidents, judges, prosecutors, the media etc. carry on as if - as if the maintenance of white supremacy is their goal. It is. See for yourself. Get off the internet and go to your local court and watch the lock-ups/arraignments; they are all Black & Brown. According to Neely Fuller the System of White Supremacy Requires a Substantial Number of Non-Whites to be Incarcerated [more]
Racism is not merely a pattern of individual and/or institutional practice; it is a universal "operating system" of white supremacy and domination in which the majority of the world's white people participate. [MORE] The ultimate objective of white supremacy is collective white genetic survival. The destruction of Black males for the purpose of white genetic survival is the reason behind the number of non-white males in the prison system.
According to Frances Cress Welsing, "white genetic survival is the dynamic behind the high incarceration rate of Black males in the U.S., which is globally second to none [MORE]. The United States has less than 5% of the world's population. But it has almost a quarter of the world's prisoners." The high rate of Black male incarceration contributes in genocidal fashion to the prevention of Black births and the Black male-supported development of all Black children, particularly boys.
