It is part of a long, bloody history of anti-Latina\/o violence in the United States. \u003ci\u003eGringo Injustice \u003c\/i\u003ebrings this history to life, shedding critical light on the complex relationship between Latinas\/os and the United States' legal and judicial system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors with first-hand knowledge and experience, including former law enforcement officers, ex-gang members, attorneys, and community activists, share insider perspectives on the issues facing Latinas\/os and initiate a critical dialogue on this neglected topic. Essays examine the unauthorized use of deadly force by police and patterned incidents of lynching, hate crimes, gang violence, and racial profiling. The book also highlights the hyper-criminalization of barrio youth and considers wide-ranging implications from the disproportionate imprisonment of Latinas\/os. \u003ci\u003eGringo Injustice\u003c\/i\u003e provides a comprehensive and powerful look into the Latina\/o community's fraught history with law enforcement and the American judicial system. It is an essential reference for students and scholars interested in intersections between crime and communities of Color, and for use in Sociology, Latino Studies, Ethnic Studies, Chicano Studies, Criminology, and Criminal Justice. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlfredo Mirandé\u003c\/strong\u003e, a native of Mexico City and the father of three children, is Distinguished Professor of Sociology and Ethnic Studies at the University of California, Riverside.
