Match the causes to their explanation.        Structural Disadvantage     /   Policies and Practices     /    Implicit Bias   Beliefs about dangerousness and threat to public safety are more likely correlated to people of color. Public knowledge of racial disparities of the prison population actually increases the belief that there must be tough sentencing practices. The social and economic disadvantages (poverty, unemployment, housing, high school dropout rates, and family issues) of minorities before they are involved in crime contribute to the higher rates of crime in minority communities.
