Mass incarceration raises serious issues of social justice, because it has been heavily skewed toward poor minority men with less than high school educational attainments.
African American male high school dropouts are one hundred times more likely to be sent to prison than college-educated white men.
Remarkably, as of 2010, more than one-third of African American male high school dropouts aged 20 to 39 were in jails, state, or federal prisons.
