非裔美国人的监禁率远远高于美国其他种族和民族。我们试图定性地探索在南部一个州的城市和农村非洲裔美国人吸食可卡因的人口中，持续参与刑事司法系统和持续吸毒之间的关系。2010至2012年间，在阿肯色州的非裔美国人可卡因使用者中进行了半结构化的定性访谈。参与者居住在农村(两个县位于阿肯色州东部的密西西比河三角洲地区)和城市(县包括首府小石城)地区。与会者的叙述中出现了许多重要主题，包括长期参与刑事司法系统(作为“职业罪犯”)、在监禁期间继续使用毒品、复发、重新监禁和得不到有效的药物治疗。从我们的数据中出现的主题说明了美国许多物质使用者在处理刑事司法系统时所面临的集体经验。我们的发现突显了需要更好、更全面地让非裔美国人药物使用者参与社区药物使用治疗和支持性服务的必要性。
African Americans are incarcerated at rates much higher than other racial and ethnic groups in the United States. We sought to qualitatively explore the relationships between ongoing involvement in the criminal justice system and continued drug use in a population of urban and rural African American cocaine users in a southern state. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted among African American cocaine users in Arkansas between 2010 and 2012. Participants resided in both rural (two counties located in the eastern Arkansas Mississippi delta region) and urban (the county including the capital city of Little Rock) areas. Numerous important themes emerged from participants’ narratives, including chronic involvement with the criminal justice system (being a “career criminal”), continued access to drugs while incarcerated, relapse, and reincarceration and lack of access to effective drug treatment. The themes which emerged from our data speak to the collective experience that many substance using populations in the United States face in dealing with the criminal justice system. Our findings highlight the need to better, more holistic ways of engaging African American substance users in community based substance use treatment and supportive services.
