The Viral Underclass: The Human Toll When Inequality and Disease Collide by Steven W. Thrasher

I am blown away by this book--Thrasher does an amazing job tying individualism, neo-liberalism, and carcerality to the making of the viral underclass but does a great job reminding us that when it comes to viruses (and many other things) if we collectively cared for one another and worked to provide for the wellbeing of the most vulnerable we would also be providing for the wellbeing of us all. An absolute must-read!
