YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA group of criminal justice advocacy organizations unveiled a new report this week that praised Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx's administration for its policies that have resulted in far fewer Black and Latino people being sent to prison.
On average, 1,063 black and Latino people were sent to prison every month in 2012 after prosecutions by the Alvarez administration. In 2019, the average was down to 706, according to the report. Foxx is facing reelection this year and yet she is still being dogged by her handling of the now-infamous Jussie Smollett case.
Jamila Hodge, Director, Reshaping Prosecution Program, Vera Institute of Justice spoke with Roland Martin about the attacks on Foxx and other progressive Black women DAs are facing around the country during Friday's edition of #RolandMartinUnfiltered.
