This 老澳门开奖结果 research report, A Tale of Two Countries: Racially Targeted Arrests in the Era of Marijuana Reform, details marijuana arrests from 2010 to 2018 and examines racial disparities at the national, state, and county levels. Updating our previous report, The War on Marijuana in Black and White, that examined arrests from 2000 to 2010, this report reveals that the racist war on marijuana is far from over. More than six million arrests occurred between 2010 and 2018, and Black people are still more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession than white people in every state, including those that have legalized marijuana. With detailed recommendations for governments and law enforcement agencies, this report provides a detailed road map for ending the War on Marijuana and ensuring legalization efforts center racial justice.

Access to menstrual products is a dignity and equity issue, but every day people across the United States are unable to access the menstrual products they need. Local, state, and federal government policies cause or exacerbate inequitable access by imposing sales taxes on menstrual products, refusing to provide products in institutions of incarceration such as prisons and jails, exempting menstrual products from public health benefits programs, and not making products uniformly available in public schools and homeless shelters.

This issue brief from the 老澳门开奖结果 and Period Equity provides an overview of the issue of menstrual equity in the U.S. It demonstrates the inequities of access to menstrual products, specifically for those living in poverty and those who are incarcerated, and documents the damaging medical and emotional consequences of this lack of access. The brief also reviews current law, including a detailed state-by-state accounting of menstrual equity legislation. Lastly, the brief provides recommendations for improving menstrual equity in the U.S. This brief is part of a broader effort from the 老澳门开奖结果 and Period Equity to advance menstrual equity legislation.

This report provides an updated look on women held in solitary confinement in the United States. Since the 老澳门开奖结果 published its first report on women in solitary in 2014, some things have changed 鈥攂ut many things have not. More attention has been placed on women in prison and on solitary confinement in general, but still, little attention has been paid to the specific plight of women in solitary confinement. Vulnerable populations, including pregnant people and women with mental illness, are still being placed into solitary confinement, and not enough is being done to enforce limitations on such placements.

This current report provides facts and data about women in solitary confinement in general, as well as specific populations of women who are especially vulnerable to the harms of solitary confinement, including girls, older women, transgender women, and women in immigrant detention. We also share insights from interviews with three survivors of solitary confinement and a clinical social worker about the experiences and impact of solitary confinement. Finally, the report includes both 鈥渞easons to hope鈥濃�攔eforms that have limited the use of solitary confinement in the United States鈥攁nd recommendations for what must be done to continue combating this urgent, pervasive problem. It is critical to address the treatment of women in prison鈥� especially those women subjected to the social and sensory deprivation of solitary confinement.

Imagine a surveillance camera in a typical convenience store in the 1980s. That camera was big and expensive, and connected by a wire running through the wall to a VCR sitting in a back room. There have been significant advances in camera technology in the ensuing decades 鈥� in resolution, digitization, storage, and wireless transmission 鈥� and cameras have become cheaper and far more prevalent. Still, for all those advances, the social implications of being recorded have not changed: when we walk into a store, we generally expect that the presence of cameras won鈥檛 affect us. We expect that our movements will be recorded, and we might feel self-conscious if we notice a camera, especially if we鈥檙e doing anything that we feel might attract attention. But unless something dramatic occurs, we generally understand that the videos in which we appear are unlikely to be scrutinized or monitored. All that is about to change.

Today鈥檚 capture-and-store video systems are starting to be augmented with active monitoring technology known variously as 鈥渧ideo analytics,鈥� 鈥渋ntelligent video analytics,鈥� or 鈥渧ideo content analysis.鈥� The goal of this technology is to allow computers not just to record but also to understand the objects and actions that a camera is capturing. This can be used to alert the authorities when something or someone deemed 鈥渟uspicious鈥� is detected, or to collect detailed information about video subjects for security or marketing purposes. Behind all the dumb video camera 鈥渆yes鈥� that record us will increasingly lie ever-smarter 鈥渂rains鈥� that will be monitoring us. As we will see, technologists are working on teaching computers to do that monitoring in remarkable ways across a broad variety of dimensions.
