Why do police search more people from ethnic minority communities?
StudentsVirtual
Police in England and Wales can stop and search people suspected of carrying weapons, drugs, or stolen goods. Used daily, these powers are highly controversial because in many areas, people from ethnic minority communities are more likely to be stopped and searched than others. Join UCL to explore how social research can examine these patterns, using real police records to question whether disparities reflect bias or other social factors, and how society should respond.
