While racism may not be as blatant in Canada as in the United States, it does exist. Members of visible minority groups are discriminated against in employment, housing, and access to public services. The increasing visibility of hate groups and calls to restrict immigration mark the growing tension. Racist attitudes against Asians and Blacks, in particular, have seeped into the criminal justice system. Ironically, since 1960 it has been illegal in Ontario to track crime by race, making it difficult for researchers to collect data. The media, our primary source of information, has sensationalized crimes where minority groups are implicated. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClayton Mosher uses historical data and media reports to expose racism in Canada's social, legal, and criminal justice systems. He considers the social contexts of discrimination, legislation directed against minority groups, law enforcement, and court outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt last, we are offered an objective assessment of racism in Canada. \u003cem\u003eDiscrimination and Denial\u003c\/em\u003e is essential reading for judges, lawyers, police officers, social policy makers, and community leaders. Interpretations of recent events, such as the shooting of officer Todd Baylis by a fugitive alien and gang-style slayings in Toronto's Chinatown, are guaranteed to heat up the embers of public debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clayton James Mosher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080207149X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802071491\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/03\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.01h x 6.11w x 0.82d","brand":"Clayton James Mosher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48448959185151,"sku":"9780802071491","price":41.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1d2f39e7-94a7-40a9-bd8a-744c7906d307.jpg?v=1777261349","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/discrimination-and-denial-clayton-james-mosher-9780802071491","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
