Migrating to Prison: America's Obsession with Locking Up Immigrants by César Cuauhtémoc García Hernández

5.0

Truly an excellent book. I think every America needs to read this because if you invest in a 401k or a 403b you most likely are making money off the misery of others. Also, the opportunities your familiy members had when they migrated to this country are most likely very different than what is currently happening today. This book reviews the history of our country and the racist ways we have set up the immigration system into a detention/prison industrial complex. And in many ways, that still function much the same way they did over 170 years ago. I am motivated to work to destroy the dentention system we currently have for so many reasons and this book gave me even more ways to do just that!
