Hey rayiner, love your contributions to HN. I think you're missing a big piece here that I have very recently started to see myself. I would be delighted to share with you. Are you aware of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's book "Stamped

That's the original intent for expungement of records. Two challenges: 1) Criminal records are digital and searchable online now. Hard to expunge the internet. 2) Employers in the U.S. now ask "have you ever been convicted of a cr

The author gets oh so close right here to a key part of this discussion, race, but never gets there. Makes this at best a very incomplete piece.
