Jim Crow's Last Stand

Nonunanimous Criminal Jury Verdicts in Louisiana

En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on Louisiana's nonunanimous jury-verdict law, the book explores its roots in the racist post-Reconstruction era and its impact on the justice system. Initially designed to expedite convictions, it disproportionately affected African Americans, leading many into the convict lease system. Despite facing legal challenges, the law persisted long after convict leasing ended, remaining largely unnoticed. The original publication of Jim Crow's Last Stand served as a pioneering effort to highlight the historical injustices stemming from this legal anomaly.
