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

5.0

The New Jim Crow is a book length explanation of how the legal system and the War on Drugs is used to enforce racial hierarchy. It also goes into the history and evolution of Mass Incarceration. Even to those who are already familiar with the history of Mass Incarceration, and with the fight against it, this book is a good aid for those who need to explain to others why Mass Incarceration must be stopped.
