Remains particularly skued by race and by wealth. All right. Weve got some technical glitches going on right there. That was president obamas speaking there he is again at the Naacp Convention. Our bruce gordon is there live but right now lets see if we have the president again. Yes, we do. Lets listen in. applause . Now, this is not this is not a new topic. I know sometimes folks discover these things like they just happened. laughter . Theres a long history of inn equity will the nim cell until Justice System in america. Yes when i was in a state legislature in illinois we worked to make sure that we had video taping of interrogations because there were some problems there. We set up racial profiling laws to prevent the kind of bias in traffic stops that too many people experienceed. Since my First Campaign ive talked about how too many cases are criminal Justice System ends up being a pipeline from under funded inadequate schools to overcrowded jails. Clap. What has changed in recent years the eyes of more americans have been opened to this truth partly because of cameras partly because of tragedy partly because the statistics cannot be ignored. We cant close our eyes any more. And the good news, and this is truely good news, is good people of all political persuasions are starting to think we need to do something about this. So lets look at the statistic. The United States is home to 5 of the worlds population, but 25 of the worlds prisoners. Think about that. Our inn cars nation rate is four times higher than chinas. We keep more people behind bars than the top 35 European Countries combined. And it hasnt always been the case this huge explosion in incarceration rates. In 1980, there were 500,000 people behind bars in america. Half Million People in 1980. I was in college in 1980. Many of you were not born in 1980. Thats okay. laughter . I remember 1980. 500,000. Today, there are 2. 2 million. It has quadrupled since 1980. Our prison population has doubled in the last two decades alone. Now we need to be honest. There are a lot of folks who belong in prison. applause . If were gonna deal with this problem and the inn equities involved we also have to speak honestly. Theres some folks who need to be in jail. They may have had terrible happen to them in their lives. We hold out the hope for redemption but theyve done some bad things. Murders, predators rapists, gang leaders drug kingpins. We need some of those folks behind bars. Our communities are safer thanks to Brave Police Officers and hardworking prosecutors who put those violent criminals in jail applause . And the studies show up to a certain point tougher prosecutors and stiffer sentence sentences for these violent offenders contributed to the decline in Violent Crime over the last few decades. Although the science also indicate that is you get a point of diminishing returns. President obama right now addressing the Naacp National convention right now in center city.
