"Reproductive choice is the most immediate example of how restrictions on liberty and autonomy…long-imposed on those under the control of the criminal legal system are expanding to society at large," write @Vivian_D_Nixon and @DavidMuhammad in @TheHillOpinion.

Historically, young people are responsible for a small portion of shootings and homicides across the country.
That remains the case today, even as regressive rhetoric resurfaces in our most hallowed institutions, @DavidMuhammad argues: thetr.ac/DgI2Z

.@DavidMuhammad warns against blaming kids for the recent rise in violence. We've been there before as a country during the "superpredator" era, and it was ugly, harmful, and racially divisive. @NICJR01 @CUJusticeLab thetrace.org/2022/06/juvenil…

"Despite the complex reasons for the increase in shootings, politicians and news media too often ignore the facts, instead blaming America’s youth for the crimes of a highly concentrated, high-risk few."

Youth are not the culprits - Americans should know that youth crime continues a remarkable and steady overall decline.

Investing a fraction of funds in outreach workers & life coaches, & yes even in modest stipends, can most importantly save lives, but also save millions in government spending.

'This is a community that was already under-employed, unemployed, impoverished, who are now hit by a huge economic impact. This kind of desperation and devastation certainly has contributed mightily to the increase.' @DavidMuhammad
