A Double-Edged Sword
Carding, Public Safety, and the Impact of Racialized Police Practices
From: Racial Profiling and Human Rights in Canada
$1.40
In Chapter 11, Scot Wortley, a professor of criminology at the University
of Toronto, makes the case that the consequences of racial profiling far
outweigh the potential benefits, and that discretionary police tactics — including police practices of carding and street checks — require monitoring
mechanisms in order to ensure transparency and public accountability.
