Résumé

Racialized youth are highly overrepresented in the Canadian juvenile justice system. This study, designed to investigate the persistence of biases within the justice system, gathers information from young African-Canadian adults 19–26 from the Greater Toronto Area (Canada). Racial stereotyping and anti-Black racism are constant and communities mistrust the police. Results suggest that institutional and systemic forms of discrimination contribute to the criminalization of minority youth.
