Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Several authors have claimed that there are racial disparities in arrests, prosecutions, imprisonment, rehabilitation programs, and other aspects of the War on Drugs. Crime statistics show that in the United States racial minorities are far more likely to be targetted by law enforcement for drug crimes, and receive much stiffer penalties and sentences than non-minorities. There are wide racial disparities in arrests, prosecutions, sentencing and deaths. African-americans, who only comprise 13% of regular drug users, make up for 35% of drug arrests, 55% of convictions, and 74% of people sent to prison for drug possession crimes. Nationwide African-Americans sent to state prisons for drug offenses 13 times more often than white men, even though they only comprise 13% of regular drug users.
