Why are racial disparities in the justice system so pronounced in two countries with such distinctive racial histories? Following a year in which revelations of abuse in Australia’s juvenile detention system provoked a national discussion on the treatment of our indigenous communities, and the establishment of a federal inquiry into the average representation of indigenous Australians in prisons, the United States Studies Centre convened a gathering of international experts to examine the racial disparity affecting the justice systems in both countries and to chart a way forward.
