Thank you for sharing this.  to provide a little bit of balance, I would suggest adding:
 


Coping with Confrontations and Encounters with the Police, Claudine G. Wirths and Mary Bowman-Kruhm  (Rosen)
or for high/low readers
Everything you Need to Know About Dealing with the Police, Maryann Miller  (Rosen)
 
For teens who are very engrossed in these topics, I would steer them toward some classic titles to provide some historical perspective:
Manchild in the Promised Land, Claude Brown
Soul on Ice, Eldridge Cleaver
Autobiography of Malcolm X, Alex Haley
Makes Me Wanna Holler, Nathan McCall
and maybe some Richard Wright
