In 1929, President Herbert Hoover convened the National Commission on Law Observance & Enforcement to address the notion that prohibition, police misconduct and criminality amongst the foreign born was unique to only the most impoverished marginalized American Cities. One of the main issues that President Hoover was faced with, was trying to link immigration to criminality, however the Wickersham Commission Report found evidence to the contrary.
In this paper, you are tasked with explaining the findings of the Wickersham Report as it relates primarily to our discussion of Justice, and what Justice looks like for different segments of the US population using Black's idea on how the law work/moves as your foundation.
Explain why people mostly ignored the findings from the Wickersham Commission Report on Crime & the Foreign Born. Also, explain why in 2022 Americans still believe black and brown people are responsible for most of the crimes committed in the US. Note you must use at least three points from both the Wickersham Commission Report & Sampson's NYTs Article.
Using Black's ideas explain the impact of being labeled "marginal and integrated" in relation to the Criminal Justice System especially when it comes to culpability & lawlessness. Your answer must be in relation to the Wickersham Report, and you must include at least two examples/citations from lectures and the readings.
Using Black's ideas about the direction of the law explain the differences between Centrifugal & Centripetal Law and how this relates to our discussion of crime and the foreign born - note you must include at least one example of each in your assessment.
Finally, do you believe much has changed in terms of social perception of crime and the foreign born since the Wickersham Commission was convened? If you believe social perception has changed, explain why and how? If you believe that social perception continues to remain the same, explain why, & what perpetuates these thoughts about nationality and crime? Is it social stigma? Is this something you believe is just endemic to certain parts of our country (See Arizona & Sheriff Joe Articles on Canvas) Based on history, what does your gut tell you.
