Buddhist Relief Mission, Buddhists in Prison BRM Projects - Buddhists in prison Most of us live our entire lives without giving prison life a second thought. Many have never even known anyone serving a sentence. For certain segments of the US population, however, prison is too much a reality, with relatives, neighbors, and friends more likely to be incarcerated than away at school. Prison populations in the US are heavily drawn from black, Hispanic, and other minority communities. Those deeply concerned with justice are troubled by the fact that although five times more whites than blacks use drugs, fully two thirds of all those jailed for drugs are black. Another minority with a growing prison representation is Asian, particularly young Indochinese refugees. There are, for example, more than 2000 Khmer (Cambodians) currently in prisons around the US.
