Event Description:
Dr. Xavier Perez is the Director and co-founder of the Criminology program at DePaul University. He is an advocate for critical and inclusive perspectives in Criminal Justice. Growing up in Chicago, Dr. Perez
experienced the social consequences associated with disinvestment, housing segregation and mass incarceration. As a scholar, Dr. Perez’s research interests address two broad areas of study: Criminology and Latinx crime. Specifically, what distinguishes Latinx communities from other racial/ethnic groups in America? Dr. Perez’s research interests also explore variation in legal traditions around the world and the implications of such variation on crime policies. In particular, he examines police/community relations in Puerto Rico. |
