Presumed Guilty

"Presumed Guilty" by Erwin Chemerinsky examines how the Supreme Court's decisions have historically contributed to the perpetuation of racist policing practices in the United States. The book explores the shift from a more liberal judicial approach during the Warren Court era to a conservative-leaning judiciary that has allowed certain policing tactics to persist. It highlights the impact of these legal doctrines on racial disparities in law enforcement and advocates for a more vigorous court system committed to civil rights reform.
