I am not an expert, but I have heard many times that ethnic minorities are disproportionately sentenced to death. It is not just the death penalty though - here in Britain, you are much more likely to be stopped and searched by the police if you are a young black man. As much progress as we think we've made, institutional racism is still rife.
