Disproportionate Minority Contact (DMC) is a phenomenon that pertains to the disproportionate representation of minority youth at various stages of the juvenile justice system. This book delves into the issue of color-blind racism by examining the circular logic employed by the juvenile justice system to criminalize non-White youth. Through the use of original data, including interviews with court and probation officers and juvenile self-reports, the authors argue for the importance of understanding racial and ethnic inequality within the juvenile justice system from a structural perspective rather than solely attributing it to individual bias. This groundbreaking research is expected to make significant contributions to the broader discourse on the role of race in the United States.
