Hicks Appeal to Abolish Supreme Courts Justice Ruling on Impartial Race Jury

Nationwide (BlackNews.com)- According to the PR Black News source, Founder of Race Justice Roger Hicks ruling which makes minorities legal to be tried by all-white juries has caused great injustice and discrimination practices in the system over the years.   Hicks is making initiatives to abolish the ruling to prevent civil rights modifications from drastically changing the justice system and deprives people of color  to have and impartial fair jury ruling in the judicial system. The Baston V Kentucky ruling states: "A citizen has no right to a jury composed in whole or in part of persons of his/her own race." 

"Indeed, in America, a country designated as the melting pot, with its many different types of people, ideas, religions, etc. existing together, radical diversity on juries would unquestionably improve a jury's ability to assess witness testimony, evaluate cross-racial situations, avoid unfounded presumptions, and permit a fair outcome in both criminal and civil proceedings. Equally important, racial diversity on juries would improve public confidence on part of African-Americans and other minorities in our American Jury System"

The Supreme Court has always used the reasoning of an impartial jury of possibly biased verdicts in the cases of citizens in favor of a jury with persons of the same race or ethnic background.   There has been a progression of events taken place, not in sole to minorities, that are affecting the freedoms of citizens in this nation from freedom of speech to the right to bearing arms. To sign the petition in opposition of this ruling, visit www.racejustice.org.
