"The 2020-21 Office of the Correctional Investigator (OCI) Annual Report included an investigation into security classification among federally incarcerated Black individuals and found that Black persons were overrepresented in maximum security and underrepresented in minimum security compared to those identifying as White (OCI, 2021). This study was undertaken to provide additional context to these data and to examine time spent by Black individuals before reclassification and cascading to lower levels of security. The sample for this study consisted of an admission cohort of federal men offenders admitted to federal custody between April 1, 2015, and March 31, 2020"--Executive summary, page iii.
