More than one in ten American’s is black, yet there are no black jury members in Mehserle’s trial. Privileged White Americans have a much different experience of the police than their African American counterparts. Plus, they’re pretty likely to have a lot of racialized fear. Can we expect a fair trial from such a jury?
