Pray tell, what would you call it, other than injustice? As long as young people are growing up in communities surrounded by crime and depredation, where the local police department has a marked history of racism and mistreatment of minorities, and where the schools are markedly worse than in surrounding areas, do you actually think that young people from those communities have a fair shot at succeeding in life?
