"I'm not surprised," said Audreye Johnson, associate professor in the School of Social Work. "It's been known. There are more black men in jail than in college, and today the gov ernor is going to call a special session to build more prisons." The study, compiled by Washington-based The Sentencing Project, a non-profit organization promoting re forms in punishment and sentencing, was based on figures kept by the Justice Department. The report showed that 23 percent of young black men were under the con trol of the criminal justice system dur ing mid-1 989, while only 6.2 percent of white males in the same age group were incarcerated, on probation or on parole.

A 1984 report to the interracial is sues committee found 53 percent of N.C. prisoners were either black or Native Americans, with the incarcera tion rate for blacks eight times greater than that for whites, said Andrew Dobelstein, a professor in the School of Social Work. The report estimated that if w hites were incarcerated at the same rate as blacks, the N.C. prison popula tion would increase from about 17.0(H) to more than 70.000 inmates. "I cannot accept nor do I believe that black people are that much more crimi nal than whites," Johnson said. The incarceration rate of young black men is both a result of discrimination in the criminal justice system and of so cietal biases that block employment WEDNESDAY Noon: UNC Institute of Latin American Studies and the Institute for Research in Social Science will present "The Outcome of Nicaraguan Elections," with Marcelo Cavaro7.i of the Political Science Department, in 208-209 Union.

Poverty and lack of job opportunity lead to legal problems, then its harder to get jobs, harder even to get govern ment economic benefits." The government and society need to create new programs to educate young children about their opportunities and support programs for families, to help stabilize their lives, said Marie Weil, associate dean of the School of Social Work.
