The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness by Michelle Alexander

5.0

Fantastic book. Wonderfully well written - very informative without being boring or pedantic. Feels like a spiritual successor to "The Condemnation of Little B" - 15 years later and Black women are still fighting for the same ideas, still arguing the same points, still feeling the same hurt and anger and frustration about their treatment in the US, particularly the treatment of young Black men and boys. The two books make quite the one-two punch, and both are supremely worth your time and thought and consideration.
